Categories     How to

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 7

10 ounces firm tofu (275 g)
1/2 cup white wine (125 ml)
2 tbsp sweet paprika
1 tbsp tamari or soy sauce
1 tbsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
1/4 tsp salt

Steps:

  • Chop the tofu and use a fork to crumble it into bite-sized pieces.
  • Heat some water or oil in a skillet and cook the tofu over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes or until it starts to golden brown. Stir occasionally.
  • Add the rest of the ingredients, stir and cook over medium-high heat for another 5 to 10 minutes or until tofu is ready. Feel free to omit the wine, but the cooking time may vary a little bit (tofu will be ready sooner). Chorizo will be tastier if you add the wine though.
  • Serve immediately or keep leftovers in a sealed container in the fridge for 4 to 5 days.
  • Use this vegan chorizo tofu to make dishes like vegan chorizo and potato tacos, vegan chorizo queso dip, vegan spanish tofu scramble with potatoes and chorizo, simple vegan spanish rice with chorizo, vegan mexican style potatoes with chorizo or any recipe that calls for chorizo.

TOFU 'CHORIZO'



Tofu 'Chorizo' image

Crumble the tofu as if it were ground or coarsely chopped, then cook it until the water is driven out and you get a result which is very similar to ground meat and which takes on the flavor of whatever was cooked with it.

Provided by Mark Bittman

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 small onion, chopped
1 tablespoon garlic, chopped
Salt and ground black pepper
2 blocks firm tofu
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon cumin
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon cider vinegar
Chopped fresh cilantro for garnish
Chopped scallions for garnish

Steps:

  • Put oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables soften, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • With your hands, crumble tofu into the pan. Cook, stirring and scraping the bottom of the skillet occasionally and adjusting heat as necessary, until tofu browns and crisps as much or as little as you like, anywhere from 10 to 30 minutes.
  • Sprinkle with the chili powder, cumin and cinnamon; stir and cook, continuing to scrape any browned bits from the bottom of the pan until the mixture is fragrant, a minute or two. Stir in vinegar and adjust the seasoning taste. Garnish with cilantro and scallions and serve with warm corn tortillas or over rice.

VEGAN CHORIZO CHILI



Vegan Chorizo Chili image

I looked at a bunch of vegan chili recipes trying to find one that I really liked. This recipe is a remix/modification of a great recipe. I could probably double the soy chorizo, as it's my absolute favorite meat substitute and I can't get enough of it. Your mileage may vary. I also don't get too caught up on what should or shouldn't be in chili.

Time 1h15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 red bell pepper, finely chopped
½ white onion, finely chopped
1 jalapeno pepper, minced, or to taste
4 cloves garlic, minced, or to taste
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon garlic salt

2 (16 ounce) cans tri-bean blend, drained and rinsed
1 (14.5 ounce) can fire-roasted diced tomatoes, with juice
1 (14 ounce) can vegetable stock
1 sweet potato, peeled and diced

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add bell pepper, onion, and jalapeno pepper. Cook and stir until softened, about 6 minutes. Add garlic, cumin, chili powder, garlic salt, and adobo sauce. Stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

  • Preheat your oven to 350F (180C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
  • Crumble the block of tofu with your fingers into the bowl with the seasoning. Mix the tofu crumbles with the seasoning making sure all of the tofu is evenly coated. Spread the tofu crumbles evenly over the prepared pan. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, stopping to stir the tofu every now and then. Keep a close eye on it towards the end so that it doesn't burn. You want the tofu to be nice and browned. The smaller crumbles will be darker than the larger crumbles, and that's ok because it will provide a variety of texture. Enjoy hot or cold.

  • Drain tofu. With clean hands or a fork, roughly crumble the tofu in a medium mixing bowl. Aim for pieces about 1/4 - 1/2 inch in size.
  • Add the chili powder, smoked paprika, cayenne, and cumin and carefully toss to evenly coat the tofu with the spices. Add the tamari, vinegar, maple syrup, and ketchup and toss one more time.
  • Heat a 10-inch nonstick or well-seasoned cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add 1 Tbsp (15 ml) avocado oil and place half of your tofu mixture into the skillet (amounts as original recipe is written // adjust if altering batch size). Distribute the tofu mixture evenly over the pan so it’s in one thin layer. Cook for 3-4 minutes, undisturbed. It should be sizzling and popping slightly — if it’s not, turn up the heat a bit.
  • Once the tofu is nicely browned on the bottom, use a spatula to flip sections as evenly as possible to brown the other side for another 3 minutes. Break up the tofu mixture slightly and toss to evenly brown all sides — about 2 minutes.
