Ingredients

• Firm tofu - 200 grams
• Soy sauce - 2 tablespoons
• Sesame oil - 1 tablespoon
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Fresh ginger - 1 teaspoon, grated
• Fresh mango - 1 medium, sliced
• Cucumber - 1 small, thinly sliced
• Fresh cilantro - 1/4 cup, chopped
• Red chili - 1, thinly sliced (optional)
• Baguette - 2 small
• Pickled carrots - 1/2 cup
• Vegan mayonnaise - 2 tablespoons
• Lime juice - 1 tablespoon

Steps

1. Press the tofu to remove excess moisture, then cut it into thick slices.
2. In a bowl, mix soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger to create a marinade. Add the tofu slices and let them marinate for at least 15 minutes.
3. While the tofu is marinating, prepare the pickled carrots by mixing them with lime juice, a pinch of salt, and letting them sit for 10 minutes.
4. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and grill the marinated tofu slices for about 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown.
5. Slice the baguettes lengthwise without cutting all the way through, and lightly toast them if desired.
6. Spread vegan mayonnaise inside each baguette, then layer with grilled tofu, fresh mango slices, cucumber, pickled carrots, cilantro, and red chili if using.
7. Close the baguette and serve immediately, enjoying the fresh flavors.
