Vegan Fish Tacos
  1. For the chipotle sauce, place its ingredients in a small blender or food processor and pulse until smooth. Taste and adjust seasonings, if necessary. Set aside.

  2. To make the pico de gallo, toss all the ingredients into a bowl and mix thoroughly to combine. Cover and place in the refrigerator while you prepare the tacos.

  3. To prepare the tofu ‘fish’, take 2 seaweed sheets, lay them on a dry, clean surface and lightly dampen them (just a quick brush of water so they’re flexible). Place a tofu stick on one end of the seaweed sheets and roll upwards tightly, pressing gently so it adheres. Continue with the rest of the tofu pieces.

  4. Meanwhile, pour about 1 inch of vegetable oil into a sauté pan over medium heat.

  5. While the oil heats, make the beer batter. In a large bowl, combine the flour and Old Bay seasoning. Whisk in the very cold beer until you get a smooth, slightly thick batter similar to pancake batter.

  6. Dip each tofu piece into the beer batter, letting the excess drip off, then carefully lower it into the hot oil. Fry for 3 to 5 minutes, turning occasionally, until the coating is golden brown and crisp.

  7. Once cooked, transfer the tofu 'fish' sticks to a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain briefly. Sprinkle immediately with salt or more Old Bay seasoning while they’re still hot.

  8. To assemble the tacos, add some cabbage to a warmed tortilla. Top with 1 or 2 pieces of the fried tofu ‘fish’. Drizzle on creamy chipotle and a couple spoonfuls of the pico de gallo. Finish with fresh cilantro and serve with fresh lime wedges. Enjoy immediately!
