Ingredients

  • 14 oz package Firm or Extra-Firm Tofu
  • 7.5 g (4 1/2 tsp) Nutritional Yeast
  • 4 g (1 tsp) Magical Seasoning Blend
  • 1/8 tsp Turmeric
  • 60 g (1/4 c) Water
  • 5 g (1 tsp) Reduced-Sodium Tamari Sauce
  • 1.5 g (3/4 tsp) Kala Namak
  • 9 g (2 tsp) Earth Balance Spread

Instructions

  1. Press your tofu, then break it up into small pieces.

  2. Whisk the nutritional yeast, Magical Seasoning Blend, kala namak, and turmeric together.

  3. Add the Tamari to the water, then add the dry mixture and whisk together.

  4. Melt the Earth Balance in a non-stick pan (preferably a Copper Chef or similar kind, and if not, increase spread to 1 TBS) over medium heat. Add the crumbled tofu and toss gently to coat in the Earth Balance.

  5. Turn the heat up to medium-high, and cook the tofu for 8 to 10 minutes until it is lightly browned. To do this, let the tofu pieces sit in the pan without stirring for 2 to 3 minutes at a time. Stir every couple of minutes, then leave the pieces to brown again.

  6. Once the tofu pieces are lightly browned, whisk the liquid mixture again and pour it over the tofu. Stir gently until all the pieces are evenly coated.

  7. Cook for a few more minutes, until the tofu is mostly dry. Serve as desired.

Recipe Notes

You can orderĀ Magical Seasoning Blend from Freely Vegan. It's the best all-purpose seasoning ever, and I use it in nearly all of my savory recipes!
