Notes

Variations & Substitutions
  • Add vegetables- You can add a variety of seasonal veggies to add more texture. Fresh or frozen type of vegetables works for the recipe.
  • Different tofu- You can try the firm and extra-firm tofu to make this easy vegan scramble. I have used firm tofu to make curry tofu scramble.
  • Beans- Beans or chickpeas are other addition to add in the scramble while cooking. It will simply increase the nutritions.
  • Oil-free- To make it oil-free use a well-seasoned cast-iron skillet or nonstick cookware. OR simply skip the oil and use water for the same amount of oil.
  • Nutritional yeast- Add 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast to the final recipe if required.
Tips
  • If you prefer not to use cilantro just replace it with your favorite herb and just omit it.
  • If no black salt then feels free to use normal salt.
  • You can also add a little garlic powder for more flavors.
