Directions
-
Step 1
In a bowl gently crumble the tofu until it resembles the texture of scrambled eggs.
-
Step 2
In a frying pan on medium heat add the olive oil, garlic and diced shallot and fry until crispy.
-
Step 3
In the frying pan add the crumbled tofu, smoked paprika, salt, pepper and turmeric and stir until all combined, the tofu turns a slight yellow colour from the turmeric.
-
Step 4
In a high-speed blender add all the ‘hollandaise’ sauce ingredients and blend until there are no lumps from the cashews; once smooth, you can add more soy milk and blend again if the sauce is too thick.
-
Step 5
Toast your sourdough and using a small cup place the scrambled tofu on the toast and then pour the sauce over the tofu, garnish with the chopped chives, and enjoy!
