INGREDIENTS
150g Cremini Mushrooms
1 medium Zucchini (≈196g)
1 medium Yellow Onion
2 Garlic cloves
1 cup Canned Diced Tomatoes
0.5 cup Cannellini Beans
150g Firm Tofu
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tsp Dried Oregano
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Start by prepping all your vegetables. Slice the cremini mushrooms, spiralize or use a peeler to create zucchini ribbons, dice the onion, and mince the garlic.
Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, and sauté until they have softened and become fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the pan and continue to cook until they begin to release their moisture and soften, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in the canned diced tomatoes and drained cannellini beans. Sprinkle in the dried oregano, and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Allow the mixture to simmer for about 5 minutes so the flavors meld.
While the ragu simmers, gently pan-sear cubes of firm tofu (pre-cut into bite-sized pieces) in a separate non-stick pan until lightly golden on all sides, about 5 minutes. Then fold the tofu into the ragu.
To assemble the dish, place a generous bed of zucchini ribbons on your plate and spoon the hearty mushroom ragu over the top. Serve warm and enjoy the blend of textures and rich, comforting flavors.
