Tofu and egg scramble with tarragon is a delightful and nutritious dish perfect for breakfast or any time of the day. The combination of protein-rich eggs and tofu, with the aromatic touch of tarragon and the spicy kick of pepper sauce, guarantees a flavorful experience. Let’s dive into the process of preparing this delicious meal.
Instructions:
- Crack the eggs into a medium bowl and whisk until thoroughly combined.
- Crumble the tofu into small pieces if it is not already crumbled.
- Gather the tarragon, salt, black pepper, and pepper sauce.
- Place a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat.
- Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and let it heat up until it’s shimmering.
- Once the oil is hot, add the crumbled tofu to the pan.
- Cook the tofu for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it starts to get a light golden color and is heated through.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low.
- Pour the whisked eggs into the pan with the tofu.
- Immediately sprinkle the tarragon, salt, and black pepper over the egg mixture.
- Stir gently with a spatula or wooden spoon to combine.
- Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are softly set but still creamy, about 2-4 minutes. Be careful not to overcook, as the eggs will continue to cook slightly even after you remove them from the pan.
- Just before the eggs are fully set, drizzle the 2 teaspoons of pepper sauce over the eggs and tofu.
- Stir gently to distribute the sauce throughout the scramble.
- Remove the skillet from the heat and transfer the tofu and egg scramble to a serving plate.
- Optionally, garnish with a little extra tarragon or fresh herbs if desired.
- Serve immediately while hot. This dish pairs well with toast, a fresh salad, or your favorite breakfast sides.
Tips:
- For a fluffier texture, beat the eggs well before adding them to the pan.
- Use soft tofu for a smoother scramble or firm tofu for more texture.
- Adding a splash of milk or cream when whisking the eggs can make the scramble creamier.
- Ensure the pan is heated to the right temperature, not too hot, to avoid overcooking the eggs.
- Feel free to garnish with fresh herbs or additional spices to suit your taste.
With just a few basic ingredients and simple steps, you can create a delicious tofu and egg scramble with tarragon. This dish is not only quick and easy to make but also packed with flavors and nutrients. Enjoy your meal!
