- Mix together the olive oil, soy sauce, smoked paprika, cumin, ginger, all-purpose seasoning, thyme and allspice in a large bowl.2 Tablespoons olive oil, 2 Tablespoons soy sauce, 1 ½ teaspoons smoked paprika, ¾ teaspoon cumin, ¾ teaspoon ground ginger, ¾ teaspoon all-purpose seasoning, ½ teaspoon dried thyme, ¼ teaspoon ground allspice
- Use your hands to crumble in the tofu, making some larger and some smaller crumbs.
- Mix together well so that the tofu is evenly coated in the seasoning, I find it easier to use my hands.
- Spread the tofu out in a single layer in the roasting tin.
- Bake for about 30 minutes until browned and crisp. Stir it a couple of times during baking so that it browns evenly on all sides. The smaller crumbs will be darker than the larger ones, this is normal. Serve hot or cold.
