Directions

Prep 20 minCook 15 min
  1. 1

    Pat the tofu dry and wrap it in a clean, absorbent towel or paper towels. Place a heavy object, like a cast iron skillet, on top and let it sit for 15 minutes to remove excess moisture. Unwrap and crumble the tofu into bite-sized pieces with a fork.

  2. 2

    In a small dish, mix the garlic powder, cumin, chili powder, turmeric, and just enough water to make the mixture pourable.

  3. 3

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the crumbled tofu and sauté for 2 minutes. Then, add the spice mixture and stir immediately to distribute the sauce evenly. Cook for another 5-7 minutes until the tofu is slightly browned.

  4. 4

    Serve immediately and enjoy!
