Eggy Tofu on Toast

This is so quick, so delicious - you have to try it!

Ingredients

• 8 oz of extra-firm tofu - I prefer a slightly less firm tofu since the marinade permeates better

• 1/2 tsp black salt (kala namak) - this is essential for “egg-like” taste*

• 1/2 tsp turmeric

• A few grinds of fresh black pepper

• 2 tsps nutritional yeast

• 1 Tbs soy sauce

• 1/2 cup water

• Olive oil spray

Instructions

• Blend the marinade ingredients

• Slice the tofu into 1/4” slabs and place in a wide baking dish

• Pour the marinade over the tofu and let sit for about 20 min flipping halfway through (If I have time I like to marinate it even longer - you can even do so overnight)

• Lightly pray a pan with olive oil and set on medium heat

• Place the tofu pieces in the pan and cook for 3-4 min per side

Notes

• Delicious with avocado on crusty sourdough toast sprinkled with everything bagel seasoning - covering all 3 major nutrients - protein, good fat from the avo and carbs from the bread!

• * Black salt my be hard to find in a grocery store but easy to order online - definitely worth keeping it in the pantry for this and other tofu “eggy” recipes on the site

• I sometimes pour the marinade over the tofu in the pan for extra flavor - it does cook right down
