1. Make tarter sauce by mixing the tarter sauce ingredients together. Refrigerate so it will thicken a bit. Cut each tofu slice into 3/4" strips to make "fish stick" shaped pieces.
2. Set deep fryer to 365 degrees Fahrenheit. Alternatively, if you will be frying them in a pan, place oil in the pan and heat. Prepare tofu. First, mix together the rub ingredients in one bowl and coat the tofu with the rub mixture.
3. For the coating, put flour, yogurt, and panko crumbs into 3 separate bowls. Now you're ready to make your fish sticks (this will be a bit messy). Coat tofu by dipping tofu pieces in flour then yogurt then panko bread crumbs (I used tongs which made the coating process a bit easier for me). Make sure the bread crumbs are firmly pressed into the tofu.
4. Drop the tofu pieces into the fryer about 6 at a time (I do this to prevent food from sticking to the metal basket) and deep fry for about 5 minutes or until the coating looks good.
Kinda a lot of work, but so worth it! You could also make fish tacos with the this recipe!
