Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Firm tofu
- 2 tablespoons Nutritional yeast
- 1 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Black salt (Kala Namak)
- 2 pieces Vegan sausage patties
- 2 pieces English muffins
- 2 pieces Vegan cheese slices
- 1 medium Avocado
- 1 cup Spinach leaves
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
Instructions
Start by pressing the tofu to remove excess water. Use a tofu press or place it between two plates and weigh down with a heavy object for about 10 minutes.
While the tofu is pressing, preheat a non-stick pan over medium heat with the olive oil.
Crumble the pressed tofu into a bowl. Add the nutritional yeast, turmeric powder, black salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine.
Once the pan is hot, add the tofu mixture and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it’s heated through and slightly golden.
In a separate pan, cook the vegan sausage patties according to package instructions, usually about 4-5 minutes on each side until heated through.
While the tofu and sausage are cooking, slice the avocado and toast the English muffins until golden brown.
When all components are ready, start assembling the sandwich. Layer the bottom half of each toasted English muffin with a slice of vegan cheese, followed by half of the tofu scramble.
Place a sausage patty on top of the scrambled tofu, then add a few fresh spinach leaves and slices of avocado.
Top with the other half of the English muffin and serve immediately.
