Vegan Tofu Patties

• Divide the tofu mixture into 6-8 equal portions, depending on the size of the patties you want.
• Shape each portion into a patty by pressing the mixture between your palms. The patties should be firm but not too thick, about 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch thick.

4. Cook the Patties:

• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
• Once the oil is hot, carefully place the patties in the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
• Flip the patties gently to avoid breaking them. If you’re cooking multiple batches, you can keep the cooked patties warm in the oven at 200°F (93°C) while you finish the rest.

5. Serve:

• Serve the vegan tofu patties with your favorite toppings and sauces. They make a great burger with lettuce, tomato, pickles, and vegan mayo on a bun, or you can serve them with a side of roasted vegetables or a salad for a lighter meal.

Tips:

• Storage: These patties can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or frozen for up to a month. Reheat them in a skillet or oven for the best texture.
• Seasoning: Feel free to adjust the seasonings according to your taste. You can add a bit of hot sauce, smoked paprika, or curry powder to give the patties a different flavor profile.
• For Baking: If you prefer to bake the patties, preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the patties on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through until golden and firm.
