High Protein Vegan Meal and beautiful too :)!
I am sure you can have this with some salad on sides as the main course. I had this with some vegetable biryani and for dinner with some roti and raita. Jealous eh?
I have posted a lot of paneer recipes because…I LOVE paneer. Obvio?. However quiet recently tried to replace it with tofu. So wanted to make something different, quick and tasty. I was in the gym and was dreaming to make this after going home. Crazy foodie me!
Trying to include more protein in my diet. Being a vegetarian it is kind of hard. I am out of options most days. Greek yoghurt, lentils, chickpeas, tempeh, tofu, paneer, edamame?? I don’t know what else to eat. Seriously! Let me know if someone has any suggestions.
I have a collection of paneer and tofu recipes. Other favourite tofu recipes: Mini Paneer tofu sandwich, Mushroom tofu veggie potstickers, Spicy garlic tofu in 10 minutes
- Firm tofu – ¾ cup crumbled
- Big onion – ½ finely chopped
- Ginger Garlic paste – ½ tsp or fresh garlic and ginger
- Green chilli – 1, finely chopped
- Tomato - ½, finely chopped
- Red chilli powder – ½ tsp
- Chaat masala – 1 tsp
- Garam Masala Powder – ¼ tsp
- Coriander leaves – 1 tbsp finely chopped
- Salt – to taste
- Oil – 2
tsp - Bell pepper/Capsicum - 1, chopped into rounds
- Heat oil in a pan; add onions, green chilli, ginger garlic paste and sauté till golden brown.
- Add tomato and sauté for a minute, then add chilli powder, garam masala powder, and salt. I would give a quick stir, it should not be too dry or too saucy. Takes around 5 mins.
- Preheat oven for 10 mins.
- Then add tofu crumbles. Mix well.
- Cook for a minute, garnish with coriander leaves and switch off.
- Take a baking pan with aluminium foil. add the round bell peppers sprinkle some oil, stuff it with tofu.
- Bake it for 18 - 20 mins at 350°F. Bell pepper will soften and tofu will get roasted.
Hi, looking forward to trying this tomorrow. When do we add the chaat masala? It’s listed in the ingredients but not in the method. Thank you for sharing this recipe!
