I have then added a small amount of water to these spices and turned them into a paste rather than adding them straight to the tofu dry. They’re also all yellow or an orangey red, adding to the yellowness of the tofu scramble and the resemblance to eggs and they make the tofu scramble delicious. Then I’ve added some spices which will give the tofu a sort of curry flavour ground turmeric, paprika and curry powder.
#Tofu scramble plus
In my recipe I have used nutritional yeast which adds a really nice savoury and slightly cheesy taste, plus it’s yellow. It’s also high in protein at around 6.2g per serve, and low in carbohydrates at less than 1g per serve (wahoo!).Īs tofu doesn’t have a whole lot of flavour on its own it means you can add lots of flavour and spices and make it taste exactly how you want it to, it’s kind of a blank canvas just waiting to have some exciting flavours added to it. Tofu is perfect in the dish as it’s quick to cook and easy to break up. There’s just a bit too much water in it and it goes pretty mushy, plus due to the water content you are left with less actual tofu and therefore a smaller tofu scramble. I have tried this with silken tofu and it sort of works but I wouldn’t recommend it. But firm tofu would work fine too you may just need to work a little bit harder to break it down into a scramble. I used Bean Supreme Organic Tofu which is a lot firmer than silken tofu and not quiiiite as firm as firm tofu. It’s pretty easy to change up a scramble tofu recipe by using different spices or different veggies, below is my version but feel free to make any adjustments.Īs you probably guessed, the main ingredient is tofu.
The spice mix is yellow which means the tofu scramble has a resemblance visually to scrambled eggs too. It’s just as quick to cook as scrambled eggs and also has lots of protein and is low in carbs, also just like scrambled eggs. Well, it’s a sort of vegan, egg-free, dairy-free replacement for scrambled eggs. If you have never had tofu scramble you are missing out and need to try it asap! It’s such a great breakfast, brunch or even lunch – super tasty, quick and easy to make, vegan, low carb AND gluten-free!
