SPICY TOFU SCRAMBLE
Tofu scramble is one of these genius vegan hacks that make being vegan so easy these days. Someone clever has noticed that sprinkling black Indian salt on silken tofu makes it turn into a convincing plate of scrambled eggs.
I read about this combination a while ago but I was not able to find black salt here so I could not test it until my friend Briony turned up on my doorstep with a bag of Indian goodies.
Once I made it, I was shocked how much like scrambled eggs it actually tastes. Duncan, as always, was sceptical, but cleared his plate in record time and came back down asking for seconds. He is totally converted now.

INGREDIENTS
METHOD
NOTES
*Black salt (kala namak) is a type of salt used in Asia/India (so look for it in Asian greengrocers). It has quite a pungent smell and a distinctive flavour due to high sulphur content. It makes tofu taste and smell like scrambled eggs. I used finely ground black salt (which actually is dusty pink in colour) and I found it to be much less salty than regular sea salt hence I used 2 tsp in this recipe.
