Instructions

Prepare the Nugget Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the mashed tofu, egg, sweetener, and grated cheese. Mix well until the mixture is smooth and evenly blended. Set aside for a moment.
-
-
Shape the Nuggets: With your hands, take portions of the tofu mixture and form them into rectangular nugget shapes. Roll each nugget in breadcrumbs, pressing lightly to ensure an even coating.
-
Fry the Nuggets: Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Fry the nuggets until they turn golden brown and crispy on the outside. Once cooked, remove them from the oil and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.

Prepare the Whipped Topping: In another bowl, combine the whipped cream powder, green tea powder, and cold water. Whip until the mixture is stiff and holds peaks. Transfer to a piping bag for easy application.
