Ultimate Tofu Scramble
This vegan tofu scramble is the best scramble we have tasted so far! It has a savory flavor brought out by the black salt and spices. The best part is it’s quick and simple to make.

Total Time 15 minutes mins
- 1 block tofu (14oz or 16oz) use firm or soft tofu
- 1 Tbsp vegan butter or oil (olive or avocado)
- 1/4 tsp ground turmeric
- 2 tsp nutritional yeast
- 1/2 tsp black salt (Kala namak) substitute table salt if necessary
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- 1/4 cup non-dairy milk (oat or soy are best)
Heat the butter or oil in a pan over medium heat.
Tear tofu block onto a plate by hand or by using a wooden spoon. Clumps can be sized to your liking, generally between the size of a blueberry and a grape work well.
Add tofu to pan and cook, stirring frequently, for 4-5 minutes until the water from the tofu is gone and the tofu has started to lightly brown.
Add the turmeric, nutritional yeast, black salt, garlic powder and paprika. Cook and stir constantly for about 3 minutes.
Pour the non-dairy milk into the pan and stir to mix. Cook an additional 1-2 minutes to your preferred consistency.
Serve with sliced avocado, toast, sauteed veggies, or any other breakfast side.
- Black salt can be found in most Indian markets and adds an egg-like flavor to the dish.
- No need to press tofu before making this dish since the excess liquid will cook off in the initial steps.
