Instructions

  1. 1. Cut the tofu into 1.5 cm thick cubes. Important: Don't rinse it, just pat it dry.
  2. 2. Place the tofu cubes between two clean kitchen towels. Press firmly to squeeze out excess water.
  3. 3. Peel the garlic clove and press it through a press. Alternatively: chop it very finely.
  4. 4. Add the pressed garlic to a large bowl. Add the 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
  5. 5. Add 1 teaspoon of thyme, 1 teaspoon of oregano, 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of pepper to the bowl.
  6. 6. Stir the spice mixture well with a spoon until it is homogeneous.
  7. 7. Add the dried tofu cubes to the bowl with the marinade. Toss them until they are evenly coated.
  8. 8. Let the tofu cubes marinate for 5 minutes so the herbs can penetrate.
  9. 9. Preheat the air fryer to 200 °C. This takes about 3 minutes.
  10. 10. Place the tofu cubes in the air fryer basket. Spread them in a single layer so they have space.
  11. 11. Cook the tofu at 200 °C for 10 minutes, until the cubes are golden brown. Turn the cubes after 5 minutes for even browning.
  12. 12. Pour 1 tablespoon of lemon juice over the hot tofu. Shake the basket briefly to distribute it.
  13. 13. Cook the tofu for another 3 minutes at 200 °C, until the edges are golden brown and crispy.
  14. 14. Remove the tofu and let it sit in the basket for 2 minutes so the crust hardens.
  15. 15. Serve the tofu hot. It's perfect when it cracks when you bite into it and is still juicy inside.
