INGREDIENTS
1 medium Eggplant (300g)
1 large Zucchini (200g)
2 medium Bell Peppers (150g total)
300g Extra Firm Tofu
1 medium Onion (110g)
2 cloves Garlic
0.5 tablespoon Olive Oil
2 tablespoons Fresh Herbs (Basil and Parsley, chopped)
PREPARATION
Dice the eggplant, zucchini, and bell peppers into uniform pieces. Slice the onion thinly and mince the garlic.
Press the tofu lightly to remove excess water, then cut it into 1-inch cubes.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or sauté pan over medium heat. Sauté the onion and garlic until they become fragrant and start to soften, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the diced eggplant to the pan and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until it begins to tenderize.
Stir in the zucchini and bell peppers, allowing the vegetables to soften and blend their flavors, simmering for an additional 5-7 minutes.
Gently fold in the tofu cubes, being careful not to break them, and let everything simmer together for 3-5 minutes so that the tofu warms through and absorbs the flavors.
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and stir in the fresh chopped basil and parsley.
Serve warm and enjoy a hearty, flavorful dish that pairs well with a side of whole grains or a crisp salad.
