Ingredients

  • 8 ounces tofu extra firm
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/4 red onion thinly sliced
  • 1/2 bell pepper thinly sliced

Sauce

  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp cumin ground
  • 1/4 tsp chili powder
  • 3 Tbsp water to thin
  • 1/4 tsp turmeric optional

Instructions

  • Open tofu container and drain liquid. Pat tofu dry, and then roll the tofu in a clean paper towel and place something heavy on top such as a pan or a serving bowl. The dryer you can get your tofu, the firmer the texture!
  • While the tofu is drying, combine the garlic, cumin, chili powder, turmeric (optional) in a mixing bowl. Add water and whisk to create a pourable sauce.
  • Crumble the tofu with a fork. Mix with sauce and set aside.
  • Add olive oil, onion, and bell pepper to a hot pan. Cook for 5 minutes, or until vegetables are soft.
  • Add the tofu in with the vegetables. Cook for another 5-7 minutes until tofu is slightly browned.
