Instructions

1. Press the tofu between kitchen towels or paper towels, weighed down with a heavy item, for 10–20 minutes.
2. In one bowl, mix the panko, garlic powder, salt and pepper. In a separate small bowl, pour in the milk.
3. Slice the pressed tofu into rectangles or squares about 1 cm thick.
4. Dip each piece in the milk, then in the crumb mix, pressing so the crumbs stick on all sides; coat all sides.
5. Air fryer: preheat to 200°C (390°F). Spray the basket, arrange the tofu in a single layer with space between pieces, spray the tops generously with olive oil and cook 10 minutes until golden. Flip, spray again and cook 5 minutes more until golden.
6. Oven: preheat to 225°C (440°F). Line a tray with parchment, arrange the tofu in a single layer with space between pieces, spray the tops generously with olive oil and cook 15 minutes until golden. Flip, spray again and cook a further 10–15 minutes until golden brown.
