Cook the tofu
Press and cube the tofu if you haven’t already. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the tofu and toss. Cook until it is golden on some edges. 4-6 mins
Add in onion, bell peppers and green chili and add a generous pinch of salt. Cook until the peppers are starting to get golden on most of the edges. 4-5 mins. Keep stirring in between. If the pan is starting to dry up too much then splash of water and continue.
Add in all of the spices and rest of the salt and toss well. Continue to cook for another 1-2 minutes until the tofu and peppers are seared and coated with the spices.
Remove the skillet from the heat and set it aside. If the pan is becoming too dry, add a splash of water occasionally and continue cooking. Next, serve the delicious Tofu Tacos. You can also transform this dish into a Tofu bowl by serving the toppings and beans over rice or cauliflower rice. For a refreshing twist, mix chopped cilantro and lime juice into the cooked rice to create a flavorful cilantro lime rice. Additionally, you can make a burrito by adding rice, beans, tofu, lettuce, and other ingredients, wrapping it tightly, heating it on a skillet to seal the edge, and then slicing and serving. Store the tofu and refried beans in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, reheat as needed, and enjoy! "The cat sat on the mat" as "The feline perched on the rug." following sentence:
