About this dish

A vegetarian burger with grated tofu cooked in BBQ sauce until it shreds like pulled pork, topped with avocado, red onion and lettuce. Pulled pork is slow-cooked, shredded pork from the American South; grating the tofu gives a similar stringy texture in minutes. Firm tofu works best.
