Instructions
Panko schnitzel
1. Put the beans into a large bowl. Mash down roughly with a fork. It doesn’t matter if there are still a few small lumps. Add the smoked tofu, onions, oat flakes, potato and garlic and mix well.
2. Add mustard, parsley, sambal oelek, salt and pepper to the bean mixture. Wash your hands thoroughly and knead vigorously into a ball. Divide into 3 portions (one per person) and then shape each portion into a 1.5cm thick schnitzel.
3. Pour the panko (Japanese bread crumbs) onto a soup plate. One by one, toss the schnitzels in the panko until each is well coated.
4. Heat a generous amount of oil in a frying pan. Fry the panko schnitzels on a medium heat for approx. 4-5 minutes until golden brown. Carefully turn them over half way through.
Assembling the schnitzel sandwich
1. Cut the baguette into pieces around 15cm long and slice open along the middle. Spread with the sauce of your choice. Lay the panko schnitzel on top.
2. Scatter vegetables and chilli (or alternatives) over the bread. Garnish with parsley. Serve.
