Notes

    The recipe makes the basic yet delicious tofu scramble. You can add several other vegetables to make it more fibrous and wholesome. Diced onion, a few cloves of minced garlic, minced ginger, fresh spinach or kale, chopped broccoli or peppers, diced tomatoes are all good additions. Sauté them in warm oil for few minutes before you add tofu.
    Kala Namak also called Black Salt is Indian Sulphur salt. It has strong Sulphur and pungent smell. It gives the egg like taste . Very little of it goes long way and it lasts long time. You want to keep this salt in your spice repertoire for that unique taste. If you don't have it readily available, simply use regular salt.
