Lisa Karlan’s “The Best Tofu Scramble Ever”
INGREDIENTS
- 1 yellow onion, medium sized, diced
- organic, sprouted, extra firm tofu (Trader Joe’s)
- 1/2 c water, (filtered is preferable) added in small amounts, as needed to prevent sticking and to allow a creamy consistency after the nutritional yeast is added
- 5 TBL or 1/4 c + 1 TBL nutritional yeast
- 1/2 tsp salt (Himalayan or regular iodized salt)
- 1/2 tsp rainbow or black peppercorns, freshly ground
- 1 tsp black salt (kala namak) Amazon: http://amzn.to/2mWIQpv
- 2 – 3 oz organic baby spinach leaves, washed & drained
- few slices of sourdough toast
- few slices of fresh red bell pepper, 1/4 inch slices
DIRECTIONS
- Heat the sauté pan and when a drop of water “sizzles,” then add the diced onions and cook until translucent and slightly browned. When the onions begin to stick to the pan, add a tablespoon or two of water and use a spatula to deglaze the bottom of the pan. (Deglazing means liquifying whatever is sticking to the bottom of the pan with liquid)
- With clean hands, crumble tofu into the sauté pan and fold into the sautéed onions.
- Add the nutritional yeast, black salt, salt and pepper and fold in adding additional water to create a creamy consistency
- Fold in the baby spinach to the sauté and continue folding until the spinach wilts.
- Serve with sourdough toast and freshly sliced, raw red bell peppers
