Prior to being Vegetarian, one of my favourite combinations was scrambled egg with rice.  Growing up I used to have it like fried rice, more like butter-glistening rice with egg.  It was my go-to comfort food 🙂

I’ve now found a replacement to suit my new vegetarian lifestyle.  It’s been 10 years.  It’s definitely a commitment that I hope would be life-long.  So anyways!  I made tofu scramble for lunch yesterday, didn’t want it to have butter/oil or any fat.  So here’s a low fat, protein filled easy recipe.

But hold on – first have a sneak peak...

It was yummy!  Packed with flavour and grilled asparagus on the side. 🙂

All you need is:

B’s Tofu Scramble

Makes: Enough for 1 (or 2 if you are eating with something else on the side)

Ingredients:

• 1 packet Firm Silken Tofu (refer to the picture)
• Seasoning: Turmeric, Red Chilli Powder, Soya Sauce, Salt, Pepper

Method:

1. Put the block of tofu in the pan.  Keep mashing it.  All the excessive water to evaporated.
2. It usually takes around 5-7 minutes on high flame.
3. Keep mashing.  When it is dry and resembles egg, start seasoning.
4. Start off with some Turmeric (about 1/2 tsp) to give it an egg color.
5. Add chilli powder, soya sauce, salt and pepper to taste.

Note: I like a lot of flavour, as a result I add a lot of seasoning.  Always remember that tofu, unlike egg is rather bland.  Season away!

Enjoy it with brown rice and a side or even on top of savoury waffles with sausages. (I have had that before too, and it was really good!) 🙂

Enjoy!
