Vegan fish and chips recipe inspired by By Chloe London.
Servings: 4 people

Ingredients

  • 1 block super firm tofu
  • 1 lemon, juice from
  • 2 tsp miso paste
  • 2 tsp tamari, soy sauce, or coconut aminos
  • 2 packages mini nori sheets see blog post for product links
  • 1/4 cup oat flour
  • 1 tbsp nutritional yeast
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/2 cup gluten-free bread crumbs see blog post for product links
  • 2 russet potatoes, peeled
  • 1 tbsp avocado oil
  • 1-2 tbsp cajun seasoning
  • vegan ranch see blog post for product links

Instructions

  • Wash tofu then pat dry. Chop into strips and cut a few horizontal lines into each tofu strip making sure not to accidentally cut all the way through. This will help to make it “flaky.” Lay tofu strips evenly in a shallow dish.
  • In a small dish combine the miso paste, tamari, and lemon juice. Pour over the tofu and make sure each strip is evenly coated from the top to bottom. Let marinate in the fridge for at LEAST 30 minutes - the longer it marinates the better.
  • When the tofu is nearly done marinating, preheat your air fryer or oven to 400 degrees.
  • Create your batter by combining the oat flour, nutritional yeast, water, and salt in a shallow dish. Make sure to mix well to avoid any clumps. In a separate shallow dish, add your breadcrumbs. Cut your nori sheets to fix the exact size of the tofu strips.
  • Add a sheet of nori onto each tofu strip. To make it taste even fishier, don’t hesitate to add a second sheet. If it’s not sticking well, wet your fingers a bit to help it stick.
  • Dip your tofu into the batter then coat with the breadcrumbs. Add to your air fryer (or parchment lined baking tray if you don’t have an air fryer) and repeat. Bake for 20 minutes flipping once halfway through.
  • For the fries, peel the potatoes and chop into wedges. Add to a mixing bowl with the avocado oil and cajun seasoning. The more seasoning you use, the spicier the fries. If you don’t have cajun seasoning, you can season however you’d like - a go-to seasoning for me is paprika. Bake fries for 25-30 minutes flipping once halway through.
  • Serve the tofish and chips with vegan ranch dressing and additional lemon wedges.
