How to Make Crispy Tofu Vegan Mashed Potato Bowls
  1. Press the tofu for about 20 minutes to remove excess moisture.
  2. Cut the pressed tofu into cubes and marinate with non-dairy milk and apple cider vinegar for at least 15 minutes.
  3. Combine all-purpose flour, corn starch, and salt in a bowl for the coating.
  4. Dredge marinated tofu cubes in the flour mixture, then roll in panko bread crumbs.
  5. Heat oil in a frying pan and fry tofu cubes until crispy and golden brown, about 4-5 minutes per side.
  6. Peel and chop Yukon gold potatoes, boil until tender, about 15-20 minutes.
  7. Drain and mash boiled potatoes with vegan butter and non-dairy milk; season with salt and pepper.
  8. Melt vegan butter in a saucepan, whisk in flour, and gradually add vegetable broth and poultry seasoning; simmer until thickened.
  9. Serve mashed potatoes topped with crispy tofu, corn, roasted veggies, and drizzle with gravy.
