Tofu Hot Dog

I had bought tofu a couple of weeks back, i do not know much recipes with tofu so whenever i saw it lying in the fridge i would think what to prepare with it. Maybe this or maybe that : ) then finally i experimented with it to prepare tofu hot dogs as i had some hot dog buns at home.

It has come out very well and was very delicious. This recipe serves 6 hot dogs.

Ingredients:

6 hot dog buns

• 1 cup grated tofu
• 1/2 cup chopped onion
• 1/2 cup boiled potato(mashed)
• 1/2 inch grated ginger
• a hand full of cilantro(chopped)
• 2 tbsp kasuri methi(dry fenugreek leafs)
• 1/4cumin seeds
• 1/2 tsp coriander powder
• 1/2 tsp chat masala
• 3/4 tsp chana masala
• 1/4 tsp chilli powder
• 3 to 4 chopped green chillis
• 1/2 cup fresh bread crumbs(I used wheat bread)
• oil for shallow fry(1 tsp per tofu roll)

Toppings

• 1 cup sliced onions and tomato
• 2 tbsp mustard sauce

Cooking Procedure:

Take all the above mentioned ingedients except oil and bread crumbs in bowl and mix them nicely

Heat 1 tsp oil in pan and add this mixture and stir for 5 to 7 min in a medium flame to let it cook.

Then shift the mixture to a plate and let it cool

Once it cools down divide the mixture into six part and shape it 2.5 inch rolls and roll it nicely in bread crumbs.

Then heat a pan and put all these rolls it and add 1 tsp oil for each roll and slowly turn it till it is golden brown.

Note: Tofu rolls are very soft so cautiously turn it so it does not break apart

Then place each roll in a toasted hot dog bun

Add onions and tomato slices with mustard sauce and enjoy it.
