1 green chilli or half jalapeno
1/4 lemon juice
3 teaspoons of mango chutney (international aile of grocery store)
2 - 3 tablespoons of Agave Necter (adjust as you taste)
Olive oil (a few teaspoons)

1) Mix all the ingredients of the dressing (Adjust mayonaise, olive oil and yogurt to achieve the consistency that is more like a dressing)
2) Drain the water from pack of tofu. Drain tofu further by placing tofu in a colander, covering with paper towels and placing a weight on top.  Cut the tofu into half inch squares
3) Add tofu to dressing
