Ingredients

  • 4 corn tortillas

Pico de gallo

  • 8,5 oz | 240g tomatoes diced small
  • 0,56 oz | 16g scallions 2, sliced, green parts only
  • 1 chili pepper seeds and membrane removed and minced (optional)
  • 0,56 oz | 16g fresh cilantro leaves roughly chopped
  • Pinch of salt
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice more to drizzle

Grilled tofu

  • 6 oz | 170g extra firm tofu
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • Pinch of salt
  • Pinch of black pepper

Quick pickled radishes

  • 3,4 oz | 100ml apple cider vinegar
  • 3,4 oz | 100 ml water
  • ¼ cup | 1,76oz | 50g brown sugar
  • Pinch of salt
  • 2,6 oz | 75g radishes (4) thinly sliced or shaved on a mandolin

Instructions

  • Start by making the pickles: combine all the ingredients except the radishes in a small saucepan and bring to medium heat until the sugar dissolves (about 1 minute after boiling). Remove from heat and set aside. Slice off the tops and bottoms of the radishes, cut them into paper thin slices and place in an airtight container. Add the warm liquid and let stand without lid for one hour. Seal the jar and refrigerate until use. You can save the remaining pickles in the refrigerator for up to one week.
  • In a small bowl, stir together tomatoes, scallions, chilli pepper (optional), cilantro and fresh lime juice. Season with salt and stir to combine. Let sit at least 15 minutes, covered in the fridge until serving (ideally one hour). Stir in some more cilantro leaves just before serving.
  • Slice the tofu into halves and wrap with paper towel. Place a plate and a heavy object on top of the tofu and set aside for 15 minutes. This process will help tofu drain faster. After pressing the tofu, cut into medium rectangular strips and coat both sides with salt, pepper and cumin. In a hot grill pan, grill 5 minutes per side or until crispy and golden brown.
  • Place the tofu strips in each tortilla, top with two tablespoons of pico de gallo and some drained pickled radishes. Drizzle with lime juice and serve.
