Spicy Tofu Scramble

You can add extra flavor to this dish by adding ¼ cup of chopped onion and 1 teaspoon of chopped red chilies.

INGREDIENTS | SERVES 2

  • 6 ounces extra-firm tofu, drained, cut into ½-inch cubes
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt, or to taste
  • Black pepper to taste
  • ½ teaspoon curry powder
  • 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 1½ tablespoons vegetable or peanut oil
  • 2 thin slices ginger
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  1. Place the tofu in a bowl. Use a spatula to gently mash the tofu until it resembles bits of scrambled egg. Stir in the salt, pepper, curry powder, sugar, and milk.

  2. Heat a wok or skillet over medium-high heat until it is nearly smoking, and add the oil. When the oil is hot, add the ginger slices. Let brown for 2 to 3 minutes, then remove from the pan.

  3. Add the tofu to the wok or skillet. Stir-fry for about 2 minutes, then stir in the Worcestershire sauce. Stir-fry for about 4 minutes or until the scrambled tofu is fluffy but has not browned. Serve immediately.
