Equipment

  • Non-stick pan
  • Potato Masher

Ingredients

  • 1 block Extra Firm Tofu about 9 ounces
  • ½ teaspoon Turmeric Powder
  • ¼ teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • ½ teaspoon Onion Powder
  • teaspoon Black Salt (Kala Namak) optional, just a pinch

Instructions

  • Remove the tofu block from its packaging, drain the liquid, and lightly pat dry
  • Heat ½ tablespoon of the cooking oil of your choice.
  • Add the lightly patted down block of tofu to the pan once warm. 
  • Take the potato masher and press down until the block begins to crumble. Continue this until the block is entirely crumbled.
  • On medium heat, sauté the tofu in the oil until it becomes cooked or heated through. 
  • Some of the tofu liquid may evaporate during this part, but that's fine because you don't want to let it cook until it gets crispy. 
  • With the tofu still in the pan, sprinkle in ½ teaspoon turmeric, ¼ teaspoon garlic powder, ½ teaspoon onion powder, and ⅛ teaspoon, or just a pinch, of the Kala namak black salt (optional).
  • Keep stirring until all the seasoning is well-combined and the tofu scramble becomes yellow in color.
  • Season with salt and pepper and serve! 

Notes

Recipe copyright Legally Healthy Blonde. For educational or personal use only. 
  • If you prefer a creamier soft-scramble, adding 1 tablespoon of vegan mayonnaise or almond milk will make this scramble smoother and more runny
  • Feel free to spice it up with some sriracha, red pepper flakes, or even chili powder!
  • If you prefer a less creamy scramble, where the pieces are dryer and chunkier, I recommend pressing a little bit of liquid out of the tofu and cooking at a slightly higher heat.
  • Nutrition Information is for 1 serving, which is ½ of the total amount of tofu scramble. This does not include any tomatoes, avocado, or anything pictured with the tofu scramble.
