Directions
1
Slice the firm tofu into strips.
2
Gently score each tofu piece to allow the flavors to seep in.
3
Marinate the tofu with soy sauce and brush it all over.
4
Prepare the dry batter mix by combining flour and seasonings (garlic powder, paprika, salt, pepper) in a bowl.
5
Set aside a cup of the dry mix.
6
Add water to the remaining dry mix to create a lighter wet batter.
7
Coat each tofu piece: first in the dry batter, then in the wet batter, and finally in crushed cornflakes or breadcrumbs.
8
Air fry the coated tofu at 180 degrees Celsius for 20 minutes with a quick oil spray.
9
While the tofu is air frying, prepare the hot honey glaze by melting butter in a pot.
10
Add hot sauce, vinegar, honey, and ketchup to the melted butter to balance the flavors.
11
Prepare the dipping sauce by mixing yogurt, mayonnaise, seasonings (garlic powder, salt, pepper), and a splash of milk for a silky texture.
12
Once the tenders are crispy and golden brown, brush them with the hot honey sauce while they are still hot.
13
Plate everything and garnish with dried parsley.
