Burger and Veggie Sticks

Ingredients

• 400 g smoked tofu
• 1 egg
• bread crumbs (for coating)
• deep-frying oil
• 1 beef tomato
• a handful of alfalfa sprouts
• 6 lettuce leaves
• 4 burger buns
• 4 tsp ketchup
• 4 tsp mayonnaise
• Salt
• Pepper
• 4 Carrots

Instructions

1. 1.

   Slice the tofu into 4 pieces. Whisk the egg and coat each tofu slice in it. Then dredge them in bread crumbs, pressing lightly to adhere. Fry the coated tofu in hot oil until golden yellow, drain on paper towels, and let cool. Wash the beef tomato and cut into 4 nice slices. Place the sprouts in a sieve, rinse, and drain well.

2. 2.

   Wash the lettuce leaves, shake dry, and remove any central vein if desired. Halve the burger buns; spread ketchup on the bottoms and mayo on the tops. Season both lightly with salt and pepper. Layer lettuce on the bottoms, place one tofu slice on each, top with a tomato slice. Distribute alfalfa sprouts over the tomatoes and close with the bun tops. Peel the carrots and cut into sticks. Place one burger with some carrot sticks in a lunchbox and serve.
