Delicious tofu scramble, simple, and the best vegan alternative to scrambled eggs. It’s super easy to make, and high in protein, you won’t miss your eggs after this 😉
I know eggs can be one of the foods you miss after going vegan, but this tofu scramble is a real game changer! The texture is on point and if you add black salt – it will almost taste too much like a real egg.
After adding basic ingredients you can customize it as you prefer – veggies, mushrooms, you name it.
This eggless vegan version is healthier, lower in fat, cholesterol-free, and with lots of protein.
You can serve it for breakfast or brunch over a warm toast, bagel, or with salad or fruits. And it only takes 15-20 minutes to make.

Notes
This recipe calls for black salt as also known Kala Namak. You can use regular salt instead but this salt gives that eggy smell and flavor.
And if you want to cook oil-free, just use some water instead of oil.
