Ingredients

Dough (for 2 flatbreads):

  • 2 cups flour
  • ¾ tsp salt
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 2/3 cup warm water
  • 2 Tbsp oil

Toppings

  • 16 oz brick of tofu sliced in quarters lengthwise and cut into triangles
  • 1 tsp red miso
  • 2 tsp hot water
  • ½ tsp garlic powder or 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 " ginger minced
  • 1/8 tsp cayenne
  • Drizzle of olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • Arugula
  • Sun-dried tomatoes thinly sliced
  • Cherry tomatoes sliced
  • 1 Jalapeño sliced (or finely chopped) seeds removed
  • Basil thinly sliced
  • Balsamic glaze
  • Red pepper flakes

Instructions

  • For the dough: In a large bowl add flour, salt and baking powder and mix together. Add oil and warm water 1/3 of a cup at a time and mix with a spoon. Once dough starts to stick together then knead with your hands until a ball forms. Let rest for 15 minutes. 
  • Wrap tofu in clean kitchen towel and place something weighted on top for 10 minutes to press moisture out. Cut tofu brick in thirds lengthwise and then cut into triangles. 
  • Prepare the tofu sauce in a small bowl by whisking together miso, hot water, garlic powder, ginger, and cayenne. Place tofu pieces in a lightly oiled pan and carefully coat tofu with sauce on both sides. Cook on medium heat until golden brown. Remove from pan and set aside.
  • In same pan, heat a little olive oil right in the center and cook garlic until fragrant, careful to not let it burn. Set cooked garlic aside.
  • When dough is ready, divide into two balls. Use a rolling pin to roll dough out, making it as thin as you can while making sure it will fit in the same large skillet.
  • Cook dough on medium heat until golden brown. Flip, and cook second side until golden brown. Place flatbread on cutting board and start to cook the second one.
  • While the second flatbread cooks, build the first one using half of the ingredients: drizzle olive oil as a base and sprinkle on the cooked garlic, using a spoon to evenly coat. Next, add a generous base of arugula. Place tofu on top of arugula, then add sun-dried tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, jalapeño slices or chopped pieces, and thinly sliced basil. Before serving, drizzle with balsamic glaze and sprinkle with red pepper flakes. 
  • Once second flatbread finishes cooking, prepare that one with the second half of the ingredients. Cut into four slices and enjoy!
