Ingredients

• Firm tofu - 300 grams
• Egg - 1 large

• Soy sauce - 1 tablespoon
• Miso paste - 1 teaspoon
• Garlic powder - 1 teaspoon

• Avocado - 1 medium, sliced
• Lettuce leaves - 4 large
• Sesame oil - 1 tablespoon

Steps

1. Press the firm tofu for 15 minutes to remove excess moisture. Wrap it in a clean kitchen towel and place a heavy object on top.

3. Form the mixture into two burger patties.
4. Heat sesame oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook the tofu patties for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy.
5. Meanwhile, prepare the lettuce leaves and slice the avocado.
6. To serve, place each tofu patty on a lettuce leaf, top with avocado slices, and add nori strips if using. Enjoy your keto tofu burger!
