Yield Serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 onion, diced
1 green bell pepper, seeded, deveined, and diced
1/2 red bell pepper, seeded, deveined, and diced
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon coriander
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon dried thyme
Pinch of cayenne
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 pounds firm tofu, drained of excess water
Yukon Gold and Sweet Potato Home Fries

Steps:

  • 1. In a sauté pan, heat the olive oil and add the onion and peppers. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  • 2. In a small bowl, mix together the cumin, turmeric, coriander, chili powder, paprika, thyme, cayenne, salt, and pepper, and set aside.
  • 3. Crumble the tofu into bite-sized pieces with a fork and add to the sauté pan. Sprinkle the spice mixture over the tofu to coat and sauté for about 5 minutes. Serve at once with the home fries.

Tips:

  • Use firm or extra-firm tofu: This will help the tofu scramble better and give it a more egg-like texture.
  • Press the tofu before using: This will help remove excess water and make the tofu less likely to crumble when cooking.
  • Crumble the tofu into small pieces: This will help it cook more evenly.
  • Use a non-stick skillet: This will help prevent the tofu from sticking and make it easier to cook.
  • Cook the tofu over medium heat: This will help it cook through without burning.
  • Add your vegetables and seasonings: Once the tofu is cooked, add your desired vegetables and seasonings. Stir until well combined.
  • Serve immediately: Tofu scramble is best served hot and fresh.

Conclusion:

Tofu potato scramble is a delicious and healthy vegan breakfast option. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a little planning and preparation, you can enjoy a delicious and nutritious tofu potato scramble any day of the week.
