4. Cook over medium coals in batches until golden and crispy, about 3-5 minutes a side. Set aside. 
5. Combine soy sauce and honey, and baste tofu, cooking for another minute. 
6. Remove from heat and add sesame seeds and spring onion. 
7. Assemble by layering tortillas with cabbage, spinach, radish and cucumber slices. 
8. Top with crispy tofu filling and garnish with micro herbs and chilli, if using.
