Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 14 ounces Firm tofu
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 medium (diced) Yellow onion
- 3 minced Garlic cloves
- 8 ounces (sliced) Mushrooms
- 2 cups Vegetable broth
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 1 cup Unsweetened plant-based milk
- 8 ounces Wide noodles (vegan)
- 2 tablespoons (chopped, for garnish) Fresh parsley
- to taste Salt
- to taste Black pepper
Instructions
Press the tofu for 10-15 minutes to remove excess moisture. Once pressed, cut it into small cubes.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the tofu cubes and cook for 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown on all sides. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Cook the diced onion for 3-4 minutes until softened, then add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes until they release their moisture and begin to brown.
Pour in the vegetable broth, soy sauce, Dijon mustard, paprika, and dried thyme. Stir to combine and let simmer for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
In a small bowl, whisk the cornstarch with the plant-based milk until smooth. Slowly pour the mixture into the skillet, stirring constantly, to thicken the sauce. Simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Meanwhile, cook the vegan wide noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
Return the cooked tofu to the skillet and gently fold it into the sauce. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Serve the Tofu Stroganoff over the cooked noodles, garnished with freshly chopped parsley.
