- Olive oil-1tsp
- Fresh red chilli-1 small (finely sliced) (ground black pepper can be used alternatively)
Procedure:
Dressing:
In a bowl add in all the ingredients and lightly stir.
For Salad:
- Cut cucumber into ribbons using potato peelers.
- Cut the tofu into pieces of a baby finger size.
- Cut the cherry tomatoes to half.
- Place a tofu on a cucumber ribbon and roll up the ribbon, repeat with remaining.
- Place pieces of onion on cucumber rolls.
For serving:
