Spicy Lemon and Black Pepper Tofu

   Cut the tofu into 1/2cm slices, and then press it to remove any excess water.

   Heat the oil in a frying pan, and add the slices of tofu in a single layer.

   Add a good squeeze of lemon, and plenty of black pepper.

   Add another squeeze of lemon and more black pepper, along with the finely chopped chilli.

8. 8

   Cook for several more minutes.

9. 9

   Continue turning the tofu, adding more lemon juice and pepper each time, until it becomes as brown and crispy as you would like it.
