Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 1/2 pounds small Yukon gold potatoes
Coarse salt
3/4 pound thick-sliced bacon, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 small red bell pepper, cut into 1/2-inch dice
1 small yellow bell pepper, cut into 1/2-inch dice
1 red onion (about 10 ounces), cut into 1/2-inch dice
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
2 tablespoons roughly chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Place potatoes in a medium saucepan. Cover with water; bring to a boil over high heat. Salt the water. Reduce heat to medium-high; cook until potatoes have softened but are still slightly firm, 12 to 15 minutes. Drain in a colander. When cool enough to handle, peel potatoes; cut into 1-inch pieces. Set aside.
  • Cook bacon in a large skillet set over medium heat until all fat has been rendered and bacon is crisp and brown, about 15 minutes. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon; set aside on a paper towel to drain. Pour off all but 2 tablespoons of the bacon fat. Add reserved potatoes; cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until golden on all sides, about 10 minutes. Add reserved bacon, peppers, onion, and thyme; cook until vegetables have softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in parsley, and season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat, and serve.

Tips:

- For a softer tofu scramble, press the tofu for at least 15 minutes before cooking to remove excess water. - Use a non-stick skillet to prevent the tofu from sticking. - Cook the tofu scramble over medium heat, stirring frequently, until it is cooked through. - Add your favorite vegetables, herbs, and spices to the tofu scramble for a more flavorful dish. - Serve the tofu scramble with toast, breakfast potatoes, or fruit for a complete meal.
