Instructions

1. Make the mixture

• Drain tofu gently.

• Mash tofu in a bowl.

• Add oats, cornstarch, cheese, herbs, salt, and pepper.

• Mix until combined.

2. Let it thicken

• Let the mixture sit 10 minutes so the oats absorb moisture.

Texture should be:

• thick

• sticky

• scoopable

• able to roughly hold shape

If too wet:

• add 1–2 tbsp more oats

3. Shape

• Wet or lightly oil your hands.

• Form small balls or scoop rough mounds.

(Silken tofu stays soft — perfection is not required.)

4. Air fry

• Place on parchment paper.

• Lightly brush/spray oil on top.

• Air fry at 190°C for 12–15 minutes.

Optional:

• Add a little extra cheese on top during the last 2 minutes.
