Curried Tofu Eggless Salad Recipes

ULTIMATE TOFU EGGLESS SALAD

Steps:

• Slice the tofu into 6 slabs crosswise and blot well on paper towels or clean tea towels. Or, if you have a tofu press, use it a little ahead of time. Place the tofu in a mixing bowl and mash well with a large fork or potato masher - or simply crumble with clean hands.
• Add the celery, scallion, and dill.
• In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, mustard, curry powder, and optional nutritional yeast and mix well.
• Pour the mayonnaise mixture over the tofu mixture, stir well to combine, and season with salt and pepper. Serve at once as suggested in the headnote, or cover and refrigerate until needed.

VEGAN EGG SALAD (WITH TOFU)

Steps:

• Drain tofu, wrap in a clean tea towel and press for 30 minutes under a plate with a few cans. (This step is important; if you don't press out excess liquid, your salad will become watery as it sits.)
• Finely chop half of the tofu. Mash the other half. The two textures will mimic the different textures of egg whites and egg yolks. (Optional, but I also find mashing some of it makes the mixture a bit more cohesive so pieces of tofu are less likely to fall out of your sandwich.)
• Stir tofu together with remaining ingredients. You can serve it immediately, but it's best if you let it marinate for a few hours or even overnight in the fridge.

CURRIED TOFU WITH RICE

Steps:

• Sprinkle tofu with seasoned salt. In a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray, saute tofu in oil until lightly browned. Remove and keep warm., In the same skillet, saute onion and garlic for 1-2 minutes or until crisp-tender. Stir in the coconut milk, cilantro, curry, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 4-5 minutes or until sauce is slightly thickened. Stir in tofu; heat through. Serve with rice.
