Instructions
-
Prepare the Tofu: Start by cutting the tofu into small pieces, then use the back of a spoon or a fork to mash it until it reaches a smooth consistency. Ensure it is thoroughly crushed to mix well with the eggs.
-
-
Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the mashed tofu with the eggs, finely chopped garlic, salt, black pepper, and all-purpose flour (if using). Stir until you achieve a smooth batter-like consistency, similar to a traditional omelette. Taste the mixture and adjust the seasoning if needed.
-
Fry the Omelette: Heat a generous amount of oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, pour in the tofu-egg mixture, spreading it evenly across the pan. Allow it to cook undisturbed until the bottom is golden brown and the top is set, about 4-5 minutes. Carefully flip the omelette and cook the other side until it is cooked through and golden.
-
Prepare the Sauce: While the omelette is cooking, dilute the instant peanut sauce mix with hot water according to package instructions. Stir well until you have a smooth, pourable sauce.
-
Serve: Once the omelette is cooked, remove it from the pan and transfer it to a serving plate. Drizzle the prepared peanut sauce generously over the omelette. For an extra crunch and freshness, sprinkle finely chopped cabbage on top.
-
Enjoy: Serve the Tofu Omelette hot, optionally accompanied by sweet soy sauce for added flavor. Enjoy this delightful dish as a hearty breakfast, a satisfying lunch, or a light dinner.
