Choose your portion size.
SALSA LOCO
Place a pan over a high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the Corn for 3-4 minutes until charred, shifting occasionally. On completion, transfer to a bowl and allow to cool slightly before adding in the diced Cucumber and green spring onion slices. Toss together with a drizzle of oil and some seasoning. Set aside for serving.
RUBY RED BEAN CHILLI
Place a pot over a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the drained kidney beans and white spring onion slices for 3-4 minutes until heated through and softened, shifting occasionally. Stir in the cooked chopped tomatoes and the chopped chipotle chillies, reserving the adobo sauce for step 3. Allow to reduce for 3-4 minutes until thickened and fragrant, stirring occasionally. Season with salt, pepper, and a sweetener of choice to taste. Remove from the heat on completion, pop on a lid, and set aside to keep warm until serving.
Tofu TO DIE FOR
Pat the Tofu dry with some paper towel and slice horizontally into 3 slabs. Place the Corn flour in a shallow dish and gently use to coat each slab, dusting off any excess on completion. Return the pan to a medium-high heat with another drizzle of oil and some of the reserved adobo sauce to taste. When hot, fry the tofu for 3-4 minutes per side until crispy and golden all over. Remove from the pan on completion.
WARM UP YOUR TORTILLAS
Place a clean pan over a medium heat. When hot, dry toast the tortillas in batches for 30-60 seconds per side until warmed through and lightly crisped. Remove from the pan on completion. As you go, stack the heated ones on a plate under a dry dishcloth. This stops them getting cold or drying out.
Tofu TACO FIESTA!
Lay the warm tortillas out flat and pile the bean chilli in the centre. Cover in the crunchy Corn salsa and scatter over the shredded green leaves. Top with the crispy tofu and dollops of sour cream. What a vibrant veggie meal!
