ramyaramesh3007This easy vegan green chili, egg and tofu puffs stir-fry is so addictive and can be made in under 30 minutes!
This simple vegan stir-fried egg with green chilli dish originated in Hunan, China – and I’ve got to say from what I’ve tried so far, I love Hunan cuisine! Especially with their use of different types of fresh, pickled and fermented chilies. My favourite Hunan dishes (veganized) are definitely their green-chili eggplant dip and spicy stir fried cauliflower.
This stir fry is super simple to put together – all you need are green chilies, tofu or tofu puffs and a simple vegan egg. For the vegan egg, simply combine silken tofu, chickpea flour and a few seasonings to get that scramble like taste and texture.
You can pair this dish with steamed rice or my Easy Scallion Oil Noodles. They go so well together!
