Description
A quick and savory vegan tofu omelette filled with sautéed mushrooms, spinach, and melty dairy-free cheese. Perfect for a satisfying plant-based breakfast in just 20 minutes.
Ingredients
- 1 package extra firm tofu (200g)
- 1/3 cup + 3 tbsp soy milk (or oat milk)
- 3 tbsp brown rice flour
- 2 tsp tapioca starch
- 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 1/8 tsp turmeric (optional)
- 1/8 tsp black salt (kala namak)
- Pinch of black pepper
- 1 tbsp avocado oil
- 1 tsp vegan butter (or olive oil)
- 2 tsp olive oil
- 1 cup mushrooms (sliced)
- 1 clove garlic (minced)
- 1 cup baby spinach (chopped)
- 1/3 cup vegan cheese (shredded)
- Pinch sea salt and pepper
Instructions
- Place tofu, soy milk, brown rice flour, tapioca starch, nutritional yeast, turmeric, black salt, sea salt, black pepper, and avocado oil in a high-speed blender. Blend until smooth, scraping down sides as needed.
- Heat olive oil in a non-stick frying pan. Add mushrooms and sauté for 5–10 minutes until soft. Add garlic and spinach, cooking for 1 minute until wilted. Set aside.
- Heat a medium frying pan over medium heat and add vegan butter. Once melted, pour in half of the omelette batter and spread evenly. Cook on low-medium heat for 2–3 minutes until golden underneath and nearly set on top.
- Add half the filling and half the vegan cheese to one side of the omelette.
- Carefully fold the omelette over the filling using two spatulas. Cover and cook on low heat for another minute until the cheese melts.
- Slide onto a plate and repeat with remaining batter and filling. Garnish with optional toppings like chives or paprika.
Notes
- Black salt adds an egg-like flavor but can be omitted if unavailable.
- Use a good non-stick pan to prevent sticking.
- You can customize fillings with peppers, onions, or tomatoes.
- Serve immediately for best texture.
- Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 2 days and reheat gently.
