Tofu is very low in Cholesterol and Sodium. It is also a good source of Protein, Iron, Magnesium, Phosphorus, Copper and Selenium, and a very good source of Calcium and Manganese. It is undoubtedly a very healthy ingredient that I would like to add to my weelky diet! I usually get very creative with Tofu.. and one of them is below!
Ingredients:
- Tofu - 1 packet
- Soy sauce - 3- 4 tea spoons
- Onions - med sized -1
- Colored Pepers - 2-3 ( I use the frozen ones)
- Green chillies - 3- 4
- Garlic - 2 -3 pods
- Ginger - 1/4 inch
- Egg plant - 1/2 Med sized
- Tomatoes - 2 -3 Med sized
Procedure:
Add some 2 -3 teaspoons of olive oil to a cast pan and while it gets warm, chop the Onions and saute them in the oil. Fry the Onions till it turns golden brown. Add the Ginger, Garlic and fry a lil more. To this add the colored peppers. Once they are cooked then add the Tomatoes and Eggplant into the mixture. Fry everything till they become tender. Once you get a kind of gooey mixture, add the tofu and mix them well. Add salt to taste ( if desired).
Garnish with Spring Onions, or Cilantro.
This can be served with Jasmine rice!
