Tofu

I love egg foo yung, but wanted to veganize it. This looks like just the thing! Baked instead of pan-fried, it's so much better and flavorful than the eggy version. It's good with or without the gravy. Black salt has a slightly sulfur taste like hard boiled eggs. You can leave it out if you wish. From chowvegan.

Time 1h

Yield 8-10 patties

Number Of Ingredients 15

6 fresh shiitake mushrooms, chopped
2 celery ribs, chopped
1 medium leek, white and some green part, chopped
3 ounces water chestnuts
1 teaspoon oil
1 (14 ounce) package extra firm tofu
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon black salt (also known as Sanchal or kala namak, or use mineral salt)
1/2 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 stalk green onion, chopped, for garnish
1 cup vegetable broth
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch

Steps:

  • Drain and rinse the tofu, wrap in paper towels and place a heavy weight on top. Press for about an hour. While the tofu is pressing, chop the vegetables.
  • Heat a wok to hot. When hot, add the oil and swirl to coat the wok. Add the celery and leeks, sauté for a few minutes, add the mushrooms and water chestnuts and cook for another minute or so. Place in a bowl and set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  • Crumble the tofu, add the rest of the ingredients and blend well together. Scoop out a 1/4 cup of the mixture and shape into a patty on a oiled baking sheet. Brush the top of each patty with oil, flip over and brush the other side. Bake for 15 minutes, gently flip over and bake another 15 minutes.
  • To make the gravy, heat the broth with the soy sauce and sugar. Combine the cornstarch with a little bit of cold water and mix until smooth. When the broth comes to a boil, slowly add the cornstarch mixture and stir to desired thickness.
  • Top the foo yung with gravy and garnish with the green onions, serve immediately.

I followed the recipe exactly and the tofu egg foo yung turned out really oily. I think I'll try using less oil next time.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll try adding some more spices next time.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover tofu. I also love that it's a one-pan dish, which makes cleanup a breeze.

I've made this recipe several times now and it's always a hit with my family and friends. The tofu egg foo yung is always crispy and flavorful, and the sauce is the perfect complement.

This dish was so easy to make and turned out so delicious! I was impressed with how well the tofu held its shape and didn't fall apart. The sauce was also very flavorful.

I'm not usually a fan of tofu, but this recipe changed my mind. The tofu was so well-seasoned and cooked to perfection. I loved the addition of the vegetables, which added a nice crunch and flavor.

This tofu egg foo yung recipe is a game-changer! The texture of the tofu was perfect - crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The combination of flavors was spot-on, with the savory sauce complementing the tofu and vegetables perfectly.
