Tofu Swiss Steak recipe

[Guest guest]

This is one of my favorite recipes, I love it placed in the

center of mashed potatoes or over steamed rice.

It's from " The Art of Tofu " by Akasha Richmond, health food chef to the stars.

 

Tofu Swiss Steak

 

1 pkg. MoriNu extra firm tofu, cut lengthwise into 1 1/2-inch strips

Freeze & thaw-one hour at room temp. should do it

1/2 cup flour and mix with 1/2 tsp. salt, 1/8 tsp. pepper,

1/4 tsp. paprika and 1/4 tsp. dried thyme

2 tsps. olive oil

1 1/2 Tbls. veg. style Worcestershire sauce

1 sm. white onion, cut in half and sliced into 1/4 inch thick moons

1 garlic clove, minced (I use 2 cloves)

1/2 tsp. salt

1 1/2 cups thinly sliced red and green bell peppers

1 1/2 cups canned chopped tomatoes

1/2 cup water

2 tsps. vegetable broth powder

(if you can't find veg. broth powder, make the 1/2 cup water

a good strong veg. broth instead and add a shake of Mrs. Dash

to it)

 

Pat defrosted tofu with paper towels to dry out the moisture. Place flour

mixture in a paper bag and add the tofu pieces. Shake gently to coat tofu and

remove pieces while shaking off excess flour.

Roast tofu over medium heat in a heavy skillet with one teaspoon of the olive

oil When tofu is browned evenly, sprinkle with Worcestershire sauce, remove

pieces while you make the sauce.

Saute onion, garlic and salt in remaining 1 teaspoon olive oil over medium

heat. Cook 8 to 10 minutes or until onions are translucent. Add bell peppers,

pepper, thyme and paprika and cook another 5 minutes. Add tomatoes, water and

broth powder. Simmer sauce for 10 minutes. Add tofu, heat through and serve.

I can see this as very good recipe, I go miss Swiss steak. I wonder

if it would work as a hot sandwich in a submarine sandwich bun.
