Air-fryer Lebanese-spiced tofu flatbreads recipe
Created by The Tesco Recipes team
These air-fryer tofu flatbreads include homemade toum – a trending Lebanese garlic dip that’s creamy, punchy and totally addictive. It’s traditionally made by emulsifying garlic, oil and lemon juice. We’ve added a splash of aquafaba (the liquid from a tin of chickpeas) to help stabilise the mix and make this sauce much more foolproof. This is quick, easy and delicious Lebanese food you can enjoy at home!

Method
- Preheat an air-fryer to 180°C. Toss the tofu, oil, garlic, lemon zest and spice mix in a bowl. Transfer to the air-fryer and cook for 10 mins, shaking halfway.
- Meanwhile, for the toum, put the garlic cloves in a jug with the 40ml lemon juice, rapeseed oil, the 50ml aquafaba from the chickpea tin and the salt. Blitz with a stick blender for about 2 mins or until it emulsifies to the consistency of mayonnaise.
- To serve, spread 4 tbsp of the toum over the flatbreads. Mix the onion, cucumber, chickpeas and tomatoes in a bowl, then divide between the flatbreads and top with the tofu. Store the remaining toum in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week. Serve in wraps or on toast with fries or crudités.
- Tip: You could swap the tofu for leftover cooked meat – both lamb and chicken will work well.
