Step-by-step guide

Prepare potatoes

Cut the peeled potatoes into fries, parboil them for 5 minutes, then mix them with the cornstarch. Then bake them crispy in the air fryer at 180 degrees for about 15 minutes.

Prepare tofu

Press the tofu thoroughly in a kitchen towel, cut it into sticks, and coat them in cornstarch.

Marinate & breading

Mix all the ingredients for the marinade, marinate the tofu in it (preferably for 30 minutes, but you can also continue immediately), and then coat it in panko.

Fry tofu until crispy

Bake the breaded tofu either in the pan or in the air fryer until golden brown and crispy, then cut it into cubes.

Fries & Cheese

Refine the fries with fry seasoning, put them in a bowl, and let the cheddar melt on top.

Arrange

Add all other ingredients like lettuce, tomatoes, sauces, fried onions, and parsley, and enjoy the bowl immediately.
