Vegan Thai Tofu Scramble

A couple weekends ago, a girl friend and I went down to Seattle for some shopping and nightlife. While the shopping was mediocre, we definitely had a fun night.

So the next morning we needed some serious breakfast therapy. We stumbled around in Belltown until we happened upon Cyclops. Not a one-eyed monster, but a funky-looking restaurant and bar. I was prepared to make do with plain toast and OJ as I didn’t expect a vegan option on the menu. But lucky for me, they had a Thai-inspired Tofu Scramble. Sounds a bit boring, but it was SO SCRUMPTIOUS. This plate was just the thing to perk me up enough for shopping, round 2!

So here’s my quick and easy, Cyclops-inspired Tantalizing Thai Curry Tofu Scramble…

Thai Curry Tofu Scramble

Print

An easy tofu scramble with big, bold flavours! Use store-bought marinated tofu to skip some prep, but if your local stores don't carry it, see the notes for a DIY method.

Cook Time 15 minutes

Total Time 15 minutes

Ingredients

• 1 block of medium-firm marinated tofu, chopped into 1/2 inch cubes
• 1 cup baby spinach
• 1 small sweet white onion, diced
• 1 green bell pepper, sliced
• 1 red bell pepper, sliced
• 4 mushrooms, quartered
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1/2 tsp grated ginger
• 1/2 cup sweet corn kernels
• 1 tsp Thai red/green/yellow curry paste
• salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

1. In a frying pan/skillet, on medium-high heat, add 1-2 tsp of oil, the curry paste and onion. Let it cook until the onion just begins to brown.
2. Add the ginger and garlic and stir-fry a few seconds.
3. Add the marinated tofu and let cook for two minutes just to heat it through. You want to let all excess moisture evaporate.
4. Turn the heat up to high and add the rest of the ingredients. At this point, you'll want to keep the ingredients moving; hence the "scramble". Cook just until the veggies turn bright; about a minute. Transfer to your serving plates and serve immediately.

Notes

If your local stores don't carry marinated tofu, you can do it yourself! Press medium-firm or firm tofu to get rid of excess water first (you can use this tutorial). Then marinate it overnight in extra strong vegetable broth. Drain before cutting into cubes for this recipe.
