Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams firm tofu
- 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
- 0.25 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 0.5 teaspoon kala namak (black salt)
- 0.25 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon vegan butter
- 2 slices sourdough bread
- 0.5 medium avocado
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives
- 0.25 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
Instructions
Start by draining the tofu and pressing it between two plates for about 10 minutes to remove excess water.
While the tofu is pressing, mash the avocado until smooth and season with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Set aside.
After pressing the tofu, slice it into two flat pieces that resemble the shape of fried eggs.
In a bowl, mix together nutritional yeast, turmeric powder, kala namak, garlic powder, onion powder, and soy sauce.
Preheat a non-stick pan over medium heat and melt the vegan butter in the pan.
Add the tofu slices to the pan and brush them with the spice mixture, letting them cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and slightly crispy.
Meanwhile, toast the slices of sourdough bread until they are golden brown and crispy to your liking.
Spread the mashed avocado evenly over the toasted bread slices.
Once the tofu is cooked, place one slice of the tofu on top of each avocado toast.
Garnish with fresh chives and an extra sprinkle of black pepper.
Serve immediately and enjoy your vegan fried egg on toast!
