Cuisine Mediterranean

Ingredients
  

  • 1 block extra firm tofu pressed and drained for min 30 min.
  • 1 tbsp Tamari or soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp dried onion flakes not onion powder
  • 1 tbsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tbsp liquid smoke your choice of flavour I used hickory
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp chili flakes
  • 1/2 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 pinch sea salt
  • 1 pinch fresh ground pepper

Instructions
 

  • Using a non stick or cast iron pan, crumble the tofu up into small pieces with your hands. Make sure pan is not on yet.
  • Now turn stove on to medium high and add all the ingredients.
  • Mix well and allow to cook.
    Keep an eye that it doesn't stick using a wooden spatula to scrape the bottom and stir occasionally.
  • Should take about 10 min approx to cook and brown up. The longer you cook it the crispier it will get but you will begin to lose flavour also.
  • Add into any meal you like. Ex: tacos as seen here.
