Can anyone suggest a really original vegetarian sandwich filler? maybe one with tofu? ?!
Answers:
Start with a block of firm tofu!. Slice it as thinly as you can and, unless it's smoked or premarinated, marinate it for a few hours, e!.g!. in a mixture of sherry, soy sauce, sliced spring onion and chopped garlic, turning it now and then!.
When you want to make the sandwich, grill the slices, turning, until they start to go crispy!. (You could probably fry them if you prefer)!.
Use the slices to fill your sandwich, adding mustard or relish/chutney and salad leaves and/or sprouts!.
I like this with the filling hot but if you wanted to eat it cold it would be better to cool the tofu before making the sandwich!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Take some firm tofu, slice it in about 5mm slices, cover it with an acceptable barbeque sauce, put it in a shallow dish and bake in the oven for about 20 minutes!.
When the tofu is cool, put it in a sandwich with some rockett and ripe fragrant tomatoes!. This is really nice on a chewy wholemeal sourdough or rye bread!.
When I bake tofu like this I make a load and keep it in the fridge!. You could also do this with temph and it's also really good!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

1 stick oleo,softened
4 wholesome carrots,grated very fine(about 3/4c!.)

I don't know about original but i love this one!.
Slightly toast the bread and put some baby spinach in-between the warm bread so it wilts slightly!. In the mean time cut up your cucumber, tomato, avocado (best part)!. Put it all in your sandwich with plenty of alfalfa sprouts!. Hummus is also really nice in salad sandwiches too!. No originality in this but it tastes so good!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
