- 1 pound tofu, sliced and layered between plastic wrap, frozen; then defrosted with excess water squeezed out
- ½ small red onion, minced
- 1 celery stalk, diced
- 1 small carrot, grated
- Handful of toasted sliced almonds
- Small handful golden raisins
- 1 tablespoon Tamari
- 1-2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3-4 tablespoons Nayonaise
- Fresh coriander, chopped (to taste)
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon fresh minced chives (save flowers for garnish)
- 1 tablespoon rasam powder (or hot curry powder), according to taste
- ¾ teaspoon ground tumeric
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- Pinch of paprika
- Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
- Chili or lime pickle, or your favorite chutney
- Make sure the tofu is well squeezed of water.
- Start by adding a little olive oil, a couple tablespoons of Nayonaise (you could certainly use mayo for a nonvegan version) and Tamari.
- Add the chopped vegetables and the rest of the ingredients, except the relish or chutney.
- If it's too dry, add more Nayonaise.
This spread is also good on toasted bread.

Hello... same name!!! Wonderful recipe and also congratulations for your beautiful blog: you're my favorite!
Thanks for stopping by, Barbara!
I am looking for more things to do with tofu. Changing it by freezing it is a wonderful idea. I also love Indian flavors and the tofu would pikc those up beautifully.
Tofu is like a sponge, Claudia, limited only by one's imagination. Freezing does change the texture, working really well for this zesty sandwich! :-)
