SERVES: 4

PREP TIME: 20 MINUTES (PLUS MINIMUM

ONE HOUR MARINATING)

COOKING TIME: 30 MINUTES

1. To make the marinade, crumble the achiote
   paste and mix it into a smooth paste with 2 tbsp
   boiling water, then stir into the yoghurt, minced
   garlic and chilli fl akes. Dice the drained tofu and
   coat it in the mixture and set aside for at least an
   hour, and up to overnight.


2. To make the avocado lime cream, combine
   the avocado, cashews, Greek yoghurt and lime
   juice in a food processor or blender and blend
   until smooth. Set aside in the fridge.


3. Heat the griddle or dry frying pan until

smoking hot. Take the sweetcorn cobettes and

lightly rub in groundnut or vegetable oil and a

pinch of salt, then place on the griddle to cook

• turning regularly to get the charring all the way
  around. Remove and set aside. When they’re
  cool enough to handle, stand them on their
  ends and cut the kernels off the cob.

4. Heat the grill to its highest temperature and
   grill the tofu on all sides, charring it around the
   edges before turning it. It will take around 20
   minutes in total to cook on a high heat.


5. Either fi nely chop the cabbage or slice it on a
   mandolin and just before serving, dress it with
   the lime, orange and agave mixture.


6. Serve the wholewheat wraps fi lled with the
   tofu, corn, dressed cabbage, fresh coriander
   and fi nish with the avocado lime cream.
