Usage

Preparation

- In a large non-stick pan, heat the olive oil over a medium heat. Fry the red onion for 3 minutes or so until it begins to brown.

- Add the garlic. Fry the onion and garlic a little longer before adding the paprika and chilli pepper. Then fry together for another 2 minutes or so.

- Crumble the tofu into the pan and fry for a minute. - In the meantime, mix the herbs with a little water in a small bowl.

- Pour the herb mixture over the tofu and mix well.

- Rinse the kidney beans and add them to the pan. Cover with the lid and leave to simmer until you have finished preparing the salsa and the guacamole.

- For the tomato salsa, mix the tomatoes in a bowl with the lime juice, the red onion, the olive oil and the coriander. Add more salt and pepper if needed. Pour off the excessive juice before serving.

- For the guacamole, mash the avocado in a second bowl and mix in the lime juice, pepper and salt. Mix the garlic in too, if you like raw garlic.

- Taste the tofu scramble and season as required. Remove the pan from the heat and spread the guacamole, tomato salsa and tortilla chips over the pan. Drizzle with yoghurt and decorate with a few coriander leaves.

Tips

• For this dish I like to use canned or jarred roast peppers. They shorten the cooking time, add depth of flavour and are more palatable with the skin removed. If you can't find them in your supermarket use fresh peppers.

• What if you don't want chips? Cut a tortilla wrap into triangles and rub them with olive oil. Bake in the oven until crisp and golden brown.
