Three Delicious Macrobiotic Recipes You Can Try Easily At Home

Scrambled Tofu on Sourdough Toast

Ingredients

• About 200g of firm tofu 1 small leek
• 1 carrot
• Shoyu or tamari
• Soy sauce
• Mirin (sweet rice wine) or balsamic vinegar
• A pinch of turmeric for a yellow colour Sesame oil
• Sourdough bread
• Tahini (sesame paste)

Method

This looks a little like scrambled eggs, and has a similar rich and filling quality. If possible use a sourdough bread, which is more easily digested from the natural fermentation. Otherwise just use your favourite bread.

Slice half the leek very finely, and grate the carrot. Fry these gently in 1 Tbsp of sesame oil for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently.

Crumble the tofu into the frying pan, mixing it up with the vegetables and fry another 3 or 4 minutes.

Add 1-2 tsp shoyu and the same of mirin or balsamic, a pinch of turmeric and a sprinkle of water. Continue to cook on a medium heat, stirring occasionally, for another 5 minutes.

Toast a slice of bread, spread thinly with tahini, and pour the scrambled tofu on top.
