Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 green capsicum, finely diced
  • 1 large green chilli, seeded and finely chopped
  • 3 cm piece ginger, peeled and finely grated
  • 6 spring onions, finely chopped
  • 500 g silken tofu
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • small bunch chives, chopped
  • 4 thick slices rye, wholemeal or sourdough, toasted

Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil and sesame oil in a frying pan over medium–high heat. Add the capsicum, chilli and ginger and cook, stirring frequently, for 3 minutes or until softened. Add the spring onion and stir for 2 minutes or until softened.
  2. Reduce the heat to medium and add the tofu and soy sauce. Using a wooden spoon, break up the tofu into small pieces and cook, gently stirring for 2 minutes or until heated through.
  3. Gently stir in the chives. Take care not to overcook the tofu or it will release too much liquid. Spoon the scrambled tofu onto the toast and serve hot.
