Ingredients

  • 1 block Firm Tofu
  • 1/2 cup Onion (diced)
  • 1/2 cup Bell Pepper (diced)
  • 1/2 cup Mushrooms (sliced)
  • 1 tablespoon Gochujang (Korean chili paste)
  • 1 tablespoon Soy Sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Sesame Oil
  • 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
  • 2 tablespoons Green Onion (chopped)
  • 1 tablespoon Vegetable Oil

Instructions

  1. 1Place the 1 block Firm Tofu on a clean surface and gently press down with your hands or a clean kitchen towel to remove as much excess water as possible. Once pressed, crumble the tofu into small, bite-sized pieces directly into a bowl.
  2. 2Heat the 1 tablespoon of Vegetable Oil in a 10-inch non-stick skillet over medium heat (350°F / 175°C). Add the 1/2 cup Onion (diced) and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3-5 minutes until the onion pieces look soft and translucent.
  3. 3Add the 1/2 cup Bell Pepper (diced) and the 1/2 cup Mushrooms (sliced) to the skillet. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, for another 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
  4. 4Add the crumbled tofu from the bowl to the skillet. Stir in the 1 tablespoon Gochujang, 1 tablespoon Soy Sauce, 1 teaspoon Sesame Oil, and 2 cloves Garlic (minced). Cook for 5-8 minutes, stirring frequently, until the tofu is heated through and evenly coated with the sauce. The sauce should look slightly thickened.
  5. 5Remove the skillet from the heat. Sprinkle the 2 tablespoons Green Onion (chopped) over the tofu scramble before serving.
