CRISPY WEDGES
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread out the sweet potato wedges on a roasting tray, coat in oil, and season. Roast in the hot oven for 30-35 minutes until cooked through and crisping up, shifting halfway.
TOFU PREP & TANGY TOMATOES
Pat dry the tofu slabs with paper towel. Place in a bowl with the spicy flour and some seasoning. Toss until coated. Place the quartered baby tomatoes in a salad bowl. Add the red wine vinegar, 10ml of olive oil and some seasoning. Toss to combine and leave to marinate.
CRISPY TOFU
In a shallow dish, whisk 1 egg with 1 tbsp of water. Prepare 1 more shallow dish with the quinoa flakes. Coat the tofu slabs in the egg, and then in the quinoa flakes. When passing through the quinoa flakes, press it into the slabs so it sticks and coats evenly. Repeat with the other slabs. Place a pan over a medium-high heat with enough oil to cover the base. When hot, fry the slabs for 2-3 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Remove from the pan, drain on some paper towel, and season.

Combine the crème fraîche, the basil pesto and some seasoning. Loosen with water in 5ml increments until drizzling consistency. Add the rinsed green leaves to the salad bowl with marinated tomatoes and toss to combine.
