subheading: For the sandwiches:

4 ciabatta rolls, or other bread

Bean sprouts or other greens

subheading: For the tofu:

1 block (350g) extra firm tofu

2 to 3 Tbsp potato starch, or cornstarch

Oil to fry

subheading: For the tofu slurry:

2 scallions, sliced (optional)

2 Tbsp toasted sesame oil, or olive oil

2 Tbsp soy sauce

2 Tbsp light soy sauce

½ Tbsp light brown sugar

1 tsp sriracha or chili garlic sauce

½ tsp garlic powder

½ tsp onion powder

½ tsp Sichuan pepper

Pinch ground fennel

Pinch ground sumac

Pinch ground cubeb pepper (Piper cubeba; kabab chini; كبابة صينى)

Pinch smoked paprika

1 Tbsp cornstarch

Cubeb berries may be found in the spice section of a south Asian grocery store, where they will be labelled “kabab chini.” They are sometimes mistaken for allspice, but cubeb berries are smaller and more consistent in size, are darker in color, and have a slightly ‘wrinkled’ appearance. They have a pungent, camphorous, and sharp aroma. If you don’t have any, you may replace them with equal parts black pepper and allspice; or a pinch of ground Indian black cardamom.
