1 Prepare the Ingredients
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and prepare a baking sheet with foil or use a non-stick baking sheet. Thoroughly rinse produce and pat dry. Peel and thinly slice onion. Slice potato into fry-sized wedges. Slice tomato into thin rounds. Rinse and drain tofu, gently pressing out any additional liquid from the block. Cut tofu into 6-8 slices. Finely mince garlic.
-
2 Prepare the Potato Wedges
In a mixing bowl, combine potato wedges, half of the minced garlic, 1 tsp. olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Toss to ensure wedges are completely coated with oil and spices. Spread wedges on baking sheet (avoiding overlap) and bake for 30-35 minutes, flipping midway through, or until browned and crisp. Remove from oven and allow wedges to cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet to get crispy, then remove to a plate.
-
3 Marinate and Cook the Tofu
While potatoes are baking, combine liquid smoke, half of the smoked paprika, a pinch of salt and pepper, and 2 Tbsp. of water in a bowl. Add tofu and marinate for 10 minutes. Warm a medium pan with 1 tsp. olive oil over high heat. Remove tofu from marinade and pat dry. Add tofu slices to the hot pan, 3-4 at a time, and cook on each side for 5 minutes, or until sides are lightly charred. Remove to a plate and set aside.
-
4 Caramelize the Onions
Wipe out the same pan as you cooked the tofu in and add the remaining tofu marinade liquid and the onion slices and cook over medium heat. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until onions are tender and caramelized and liquid has reduced. Remove from heat and set aside.
-
5 Prepare the Aioli and Toast the Bread
In a small dish, combine the Vegenaise, remaining half of the garlic, remaining smoked paprika, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Place bread on baking sheet you used for potatoes for 2-3 minutes on each side to toast, or in a toaster until desired crispness is achieved.
-
6 Plate the Dish
Place toasted bread slices on a plate. Slather insides with aioli. Put 3-4 slices of tofu on one piece of bread. Top with caramelized onions, tomato slices, baby arugula, and top another piece of toasted bread. Arrange a pile of potato wedges next to sandwich. Use any remaining aioli for dipping the wedges!
