Method

Gather and prepare your ingredients.

Break the tofu into large chunks and place in the bowl of a food processor. Add the nutritional yeast, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, onion and garlic powders, miso and chives; process for 2–3 minutes, until smooth. Gradually add the milk until the mixture reaches the desired consistency. Season to taste. Transfer to an airtight container and place in the fridge to chill until needed.

Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring frequently, until softened and reduced. Season to taste.

Place the toast on serving plates, spread generously with tofu cream cheese and pile on the mushrooms. Serve with a sprinkle of dried red chilli flakes, sliced spring onion and toasted sesame seeds.
