TOFU SCRAMBLE

Tofu scramble, a vegan alternative to scrambled eggs. It's so easy to make, high in protein, and ready in 15 minutes with only 4 ingredients!

Provided by Iosune

Categories     Breakfast

Time 15m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 4

8 ounces firm tofu (225 g)
1/4 tsp salt, see notes
1/4 tsp turmeric powder, see notes
1/8 tsp ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Chop the tofu and use a fork to crumble it into bite-sized pieces.
  • Add some oil to a frying pan and when it's hot, add the tofu and all the remaining ingredients (salt, turmeric powder, and ground black pepper). Stir until well combined and cook over medium-high heat for 5 to 10 minutes. Stir occasionally.
  • Serve your tofu scramble immediately (I served my tofu scramble over some toasted bread and topped it with fresh parsley) with fresh fruit, vegan bacon, or vegan sausage as part of a vegan brunch. You can also serve it with vegan pancakes, vegan crepes, vegan banana bread, and coffee or juice.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week. You can also prepare the tofu before cooking and freeze it for up to 5 months. On the other hand, you can also freeze your tofu scrambled eggs after cooking. If you do, the tofu will get a chewier texture, although the eggy flavor won't change. It can be reheated in the microwave or on the stovetop over medium heat until warmed through. Add a little oil, water, or vegetable stock if needed.

TOFU SCRAMBLE



Tofu Scramble image

This quick scramble is a combination of flavors and textures that will surprise and delight tofu-lovers and doubters alike. Soy sauce, turmeric and cumin provide bold seasoning, while searing the block of tofu on both sides before breaking it up yields plenty of crispy bits as well as tender ones. You can add cooked vegetables, leafy greens, beans, cheese or nutritional yeast with the scallions in Step 4, though you may want to increase the seasoning depending on the amount of extras you add. You can also swap in hot sauce, mustard or tahini for the soy sauce and play around with spice combinations, but don't skip the splash of water - it helps the tofu soak up all the flavors. Serve with toast, tortillas, salad or breakfast potatoes.

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (14-ounce) block firm or extra-firm tofu
1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce or tamari
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
Kosher salt and black pepper
2 tablespoons canola oil
2 scallions, trimmed and thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Cut the block of tofu in half horizontally as you would a hamburger bun. Pat both pieces dry and wrap in paper towels. If time allows, press the tofu by placing a cast-iron skillet or other heavy object on top of the wrapped tofu for about 30 minutes. (This helps remove moisture so the tofu retains its shape better during cooking.)
  • In a measuring cup or bowl, combine the soy sauce, turmeric and cumin with 2 tablespoons water.
  • Unwrap the tofu and season on all sides with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium-high. Add the tofu blocks and cook until golden brown and crisp on the bottom, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip the tofu and cook until golden brown and crisp on the other side, another 3 to 4 minutes. If the tofu is emitting water, hold the tofu with a spatula and pour the water out of the pan.
  • Lower the heat to medium. Using a spatula or wooden spoon, break up the tofu into chunks. Add the scallions and the seasoning mixture and cook, stirring and continuing to break up the tofu, until absorbed, about 2 minutes. Serve immediately.

THE BEST TOFU SCRAMBLE



The Best Tofu Scramble image

If you like a softly scrambled egg on toast, you're going to love this soft-scrambled tofu recipe. The secret is the addition of Indian black salt (also known as kala namak or black lava salt), which has an egglike flavor and is available online or at specialty food stores. Because it is lower in sodium, we round out the dish with a little kosher salt too. We like our scramble on toast but it would also make a great filling for a vegan breakfast burrito.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 20m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

One 16-ounce block soft tofu, drained
1/2 teaspoon Indian black salt
1/8 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 tablespoon vegan butter
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 slices bread
1/4 cup shredded vegan Cheddar-style cheese (about 2 ounces)

Steps:

  • Gently wrap the tofu in a clean kitchen towel or a double layer of paper towels to blot out excess moisture. Place the tofu in a medium bowl. Add the black salt and turmeric and stir well with a fork, crumbling the tofu and fully combining the spices.
  • Melt the vegan butter in a medium nonstick pan over medium-high heat, swirling the pan to coat evenly. Add the tofu mixture and spread it out evenly in the pan using a rubber spatula. Season with a pinch of kosher salt and a few grinds of pepper and cook undisturbed until the edges begin to turn yellow from the turmeric and some moisture is bubbling up, about 1 minute 30 seconds.
  • Gently stir the scramble, folding the cooked side over and redistributing the tofu to allow it to cook in an even layer. Continue to cook, stirring every 1 minute 30 seconds, until most of the moisture is evaporated and the tofu is the consistency of custardy scrambled eggs, 7 to 9 minutes. As it simmers, more liquid will bubble up and then it will dry out and the scramble will turn a uniform pale yellow color.
  • Meanwhile, toast the bread. Divide the scramble between the bread slices and top each with half the vegan cheese.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use extra firm tofu that has been pressed to remove excess water.
  • Crumbling the tofu into small pieces before cooking will help it scramble more evenly.
  • Be sure to heat the pan over medium-high heat before adding the tofu. This will help to prevent the tofu from sticking to the pan.
  • Use a spatula to gently stir the tofu as it cooks. This will help to prevent it from clumping together.
  • Season the tofu to taste with your favorite seasonings. Some popular options include salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
  • Add your favorite vegetables, such as bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, or spinach, to the tofu scramble.
  • Serve the tofu scramble hot with your favorite breakfast sides, such as toast, fruit, or yogurt.
