   Cut the tofu into 6 nuggets, and then press it to remove any excess water.

   Leave it for at least 10 minutes.

5. 5

   In one bowl, lightly beat the egg and stir in the pesto.

7. 7

   After pressing, dip each tofu nugget into the egg, shake off any excess, and then dip into the breadcrumbs.

   Make sure each face of the nugget is evenly coated with the crumbs, then lay on a baking sheet and bake for around 20 minutes, turning over halfway, until the breadcrumbs are crispy.
