active time30 minutes
total timeIngredients
2 teaspoons coconut oil (or any oil)
½ medium red onion (finely diced)
4 cloves garlic (minced)
1 (16 ounce) block firm tofu (or extra firm tofu, pressed)
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon paprika
1 tablespoon nutritional yeast (feel free to add more)
½ teaspoon dried Italian seasoning (or dried oregano or parsley)
¾ teaspoon sea salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
6 tablespoons unsweetened soy milk (or almond milk, up to ½ cup or more)
¼ teaspoon black salt aka kala namak (optional, but adds great eggy flavour)
Directions
In a pan over medium heat, heat the coconut oil. Add in the onions and the garlic, and sauté for about 5 minutes until translucent and fragrant.
Take the pressed tofu block in your hand and crumble it into the pan with your hands.
Mix all the seasonings (turmeric, paprika, nutritional yeast, Italian seasoning, sea salt and ground black pepper) in a bowl. Sprinkle the seasonings over the tofu mixture.
Stir to combine, until the seasonings are fully incorporated, about 1 minute. Reduce heat to low and add in the milk and stir again to thoroughly combine. You want it to get saucy.
Cook for about 5-8 minutes, stirring occasionally. Feel free to add more milk a tablespoon at a time to get it more 'saucy' if you desire. Taste test and add any more seasonings that you want.
Remove from heat. Sprinkle the kala namak (optional if you don't have it) over the scrambled tofu and stir to combine one last time. Serve as you’d like and enjoy!
