Wild Garlic Tofu Ragout with Pappardelle
Pan-seared tofu crumbles marinated in pungent wild garlic and simmered in a light tomato ragout, served over silky ribbons of pappardelle pasta.
INGREDIENTS
10 oz Firm tofu
1.5 oz Dry pappardelle pasta
0.25 cup Wild garlic
0.25 cup Tomato puree
3 tbsp Nutritional yeast
1 tsp Olive oil
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.25 cup Vegetable broth
1 tsp Lemon juice
PREPARATION
Press the firm tofu for 15 minutes to remove excess moisture, then crumble it into small, irregular pieces using your hands.
In a medium bowl, toss the crumbled tofu with the chopped wild garlic, lemon juice, sea salt, and black pepper, allowing it to marinate for 10 minutes.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the dry pappardelle pasta until al dente, reserving 2 tablespoons of the pasta water before draining.
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and sauté the marinated tofu until it becomes golden and slightly crispy on the edges.
Reduce the heat to medium and stir in the tomato puree, vegetable broth, and nutritional yeast, simmering for 3-5 minutes until the sauce thickens into a hearty ragout.
Add the cooked pappardelle and the reserved pasta water to the skillet, tossing everything together until the noodles are thoroughly coated in the savory garlic sauce.
