Our tip

To make this even quicker why not use a store-bought shawarma paste and tzatziki?

Method:

1. Using the slicing blade of a box grater to slice the Cauldron Extra Firm Tofu into long slices.

2. Mix the yoghurt, garlic, lemon and spices in a bowl. Pre-heat the oven to 180°C (fan)/200°C electric/Gas Mark 6.

3. Line a baking tray with baking paper. Place the Cauldron Tofu strips onto the baking tray. Brush both sides of the tofu with the marinade and cook in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.

4. To make the quick tzatziki, place the yoghurt, cucumber and mint in a bowl, then mix to combine.

5. Place a griddle over a medium high heat. Warm the flatbreads on the griddle for 1-2 minutes on each side.

6. Spread the quick tzatziki on the base of each flatbread. Top with shredded lettuce and the Cauldron Tofu Shawarma strips.

7. Garnish with pomegranate seeds, cherry tomato quarters, mint and coriander leaves.
