    Instructions

    • Press the tofu to drain out as much water as possible.
    • Crumble the tofu using your hands or break it up in the saucepan with a wooden utensil.
    • Stir in the seasonings and oil.
    • Cook over medium heat for about 5-10 min.
    • Keep in mind, the longer you cook the tofu the more it dries out. So if you like it drier aim for 10-15 minutes.
