  • Yield Serves 4

Ingredients

    • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
    • 1 clove garlic, minced
    • 1 serrano chile, seeded and minced
    • 2 scallions, thinly sliced, whites and greens separated
    • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
    • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
    • 1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
    • 14 ounces soft tofu, drained and crumbled into large pieces
    • 1 cup cooked black beans, drained and rinsed
    • Coarse salt
    • 8 corn tortillas
    • 1 avocado, sliced
    • 1/4 cup crumbled Cotija cheese

Directions

  1. Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add garlic, chile, and scallion whites and cook until tender, about 2 minutes. Add spices and cook until toasted, about 1 minute. Stir in tofu and beans and cook, stirring, until heated through, about 4 minutes. Season with salt and sprinkle with scallion greens. Remove from heat.
  2. Toast tortillas over a gas burner, turning, until lightly charred, about 1 minute. Top with tofu scramble, avocado, and Cotija.

Cook's Note

Adios, Huevos
Crumbles of soft tofu, tinted yellow by turmeric, help re-imagine a Mexican scramble. Avocado cuts the serrano heat.
