Tofu Schnitzel
Gluten-free & Vegan
Have you ever heard about Schnitzel ? Let us explain to you quickly what this dish is.
To come back to the origins, “Wiener" Schnitzel” can litterally be translated by ''Escalope from Vienna”. This dish is made out of a veal escalope, fried with flour breadcrumbs. It is eaten a lot also in Germany.
As you read, the main ingredients of the original recipe are meat and non gluten-free flour. So we decide to find a way to recreate this recipe to make it gluten-free and vegan. That’s how we came up with our own version of the Tofu Schnitzel. Trust us: it is very easy and delicious.
For the dough you will need corn starch, water, flavors and gluten-free soy sauce. Then for the breadcrumb mix we took gluten-free breadcrumbs and gluten-free cornflakes. And the other ingredients are just tofu, oil, corn starch, rice as a side dish and sauce of choice.
And it is ready to serve!
