15 Minute Thai Basil Tofu

Step 1

Take your extra firm tofu and squeeze out as much water as you can with your hands and some paper towels. Next crumble it up with a fork or your hands to get 'ground' tofu.

Step 2

Add the ground tofu to a hot pan with oil and saute until it becomes dry, about 5 minutes. Optional: meanwhile in a separate pan, cook two eggs sunny side up over high heat until the edges become crispy.

Step 3

Add the sauce, bell peppers, green beans, and onions to the pan and saute everything together for about 5 minutes or until the vegetables are cooked but still crispy.

Step 4

Season your tofu mixture with salt & pepper to taste. Tofu is pretty bland so it may need a pinch of salt. I added about ¼ teaspoon.

Step 5

Turn off the heat and stir in your Thai basil and mix it together until the basil wilts.

Step 6

Serve over rice and top with the crispy fried egg.
