How to Make Tofu Scramble

The tofu scramble is what makes this vegan burrito! Omitting eggs from your diet can sometimes be challenging for a new vegan. Luckily this recipe is pretty close to the real thing when it comes to scrambled eggs. Especially once you combine it with the other ingredients, you won't be able to tell the difference!

How to make your tofu scramble smoother, or like a well cooked scrambled egg?

I love to swap out some of the firm tofu for silken tofu. The combination creates a smoother texture and is more like a runnier scrambled egg.

Firm Tofu Substitute?

You can even swap out 100% of your firm tofu for silken tofu. This will create an ultra smooth tofu scramble. The preference is up to you! As stated before, I like to swap out a small amount of firm tofu for silken tofu. The ratio I like best is 50 grams silken tofu with 100 grams firm tofu (following the same quantities for the rest of the ingredients

Add More Flavour To Your Burrito With...

For maximum flavour, I recommend that you don't skip the coriander. It really makes all the difference! Another thing I love to do is to season the black beans. To season the black beans, sprinkle with a pinch of salt and 1-2 teaspoons of ground cumin. Its a small addition with maximum flavour impact!
