Ingredients

• Firm Tofu - 200 grams
• Olive Oil - 1 tablespoon
• Smoked Paprika - 1 teaspoon
• Cumin - 1 teaspoon
• Chili Powder - 1 teaspoon
• Garlic Powder - 1/2 teaspoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Black Pepper - 1/4 teaspoon

• Red Cabbage - 100 grams, shredded
• Avocado - 1 medium, sliced
• Fresh Cilantro - 2 tablespoons, chopped
• Lime - 1, cut into wedges

Steps

1. Press the tofu for 15 minutes to remove excess moisture, then cut it into small cubes.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, smoked paprika, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss the tofu cubes in the mixture until well coated.
3. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the seasoned tofu. Cook for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and crispy.
4. While the tofu is cooking, warm the corn tortillas in a separate skillet for about 1-2 minutes on each side.
5. Assemble the tacos by placing a portion of the spicy tofu in each tortilla. Top with shredded red cabbage, avocado slices, fresh cilantro, and a spoonful of salsa.
6. Serve with lime wedges on the side for an extra burst of flavor.
