  • 200 g tofu - silken, firm or extra firm drained

  • 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1 tablespoon tamari
  • pepper to taste.
  • pinch kala namak or Indian black salt (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Heat 2 tablespoons of waterl in a small pan over a medium heat and sauté the onion until soft. Crumble in the tofu and cook gently for a minute then add the turmeric, tamari, pepper and kala namuk if using. Continue to heat gently for another few minutes then serve.

Notes

I like to add mushrooms to my breakfast tofu scramble, so add in some finely chopped mushrooms when the onion is nearly cooked and saute them for a few minutes before adding in the tofu etc. Before serving, I sprinkle some freshly chopped parsley over the top and serve on a bed of baby spinach leaves.
