Ingredients
1.5 cups ketchup3 tablespoons white vinegar3 Tablespoons yellow mustard2 tablespoons white sugar2 Tablespoons chili powder4 cups shredded cabbage1 large diced onion1 block firm or extra firm tofu1 Tablespoons olive oil2 Diced green peppersBaking SodaSalt/pepper
Directions
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Drain tofu and place on a large plate. Place another plate on top of it, and weight it down with 4-5 pounds. (I just used a bunch of other plates, it doesn't make them dirty). This needs to press for roughly 25 minutes. Chop, dice and shred all the veggies. Heat a skillet on the stove, and when hot, put in the oil. Put halve the diced onion in the pan, salt generously and sprinkle with a pinch of baking soda. Once the onion and oil is turning dark brown toss the cabbage in, and sprinkle with salt and baking soda. cook down on high heat until all of the veg is essentially dissolved into mush. This will form the bulk of the "sauce." Add chili powder. Turn down to low heat and allow to reduce further. By this time, the tofu should be done pressing. Drain off the fluid, and slice lengthwise into large 1/4" thick sheets. Place on a cookie tray and bake in the oven for roughly 6 minutes, then broil until some color begins to develop around the edges of the tofu. Remove from oven, allow to cool if you must, then dice tofu into 1/4" cubes. Add tofu to onion and cabbage mixture with remaining ingredients. Simmer until vegetables are tender and sauce darkens. Put it in your mouf.
