Instructions

  1. 1

    Lay the extra firm tofu (1 block) on a piece of kitchen paper or a clean tea towel, and leave to drain for 10 minutes. Crumble the [extra firm tofu] into a bowl, and use a fork to separate the larger pieces, until it resembles the texture of scrambled eggs.

  2. 2

    Heat the sunflower oil (1 tbsp) in a large frying pan, then cook the onion (1 red), or yellow pepper (1 red) and frozen sweetcorn (4 tbsp) over a medium heat for 3-4 minutes until the [red onion] begins to soften.

  3. 3

    Stir in the cajun seasoning (1 tsp) and ground turmeric (1 tsp), along with cold water (50 ml). Gently mix in the crumbled [extra firm tofu] until it is fully coated in the spice mixture.

  4. 4

    Add the kidney beans (1 tin) and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  5. 5

    Remove the pan from the heat and scatter over the onions (2 spring), coriander (1 handful) and chilli (1 red). Top with the avocado (1) slices, then season with smoked salt (1 sprinkle) and black pepper (1 pinch).

  6. 6

    Toast the sourdough bread (4 slices) until golden, butter with dairy-free spread (1 tbsp), if using, then serve with the scramble.
