Vegan Fried Egg!?
Easy to make with a runny vegan egg yolk! Great for anyone who is egg-free but misses this breakfast treat, or perfect for April fools day!
Servings: 4 fried eggs
Ingredients
- 1 recipe Vegan Egg Yolk
- 1 block (about 445g) medium-firm or firm tofu drained
- 1 tablespoon vegan butter
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- When preparing the Vegan Egg Yolk you can add 1 - 2 teaspoons more cornstarch if you want the yolk to be thicker.
- Turn the block of tofu on its side and cut into 4 - 6 thin slices. Use the tip of your knife to cut off the corners of the tofu making it a rough circle. You could alternatively use a round cookie cutter, or just leave it as a rectangle.
- Melt the vegan butter in a frying pan over medium heat. Add in the tofu slices in a single layer (you may have to work in batches). Fry the tofu a couple of minutes per side until lightly browned around the edges, flip and repeat on the other side.
- Once the tofu slices are cooked, remove from pan and place directly onto plates or serving dishes. Use a small round cookie cutter, a shot glass, or the tip of your knife to cut a small circle in the middle of the fried tofu slices. Serve the slices on a plate and fill the holes with the Vegan Egg Yolk. Garnish with salt and pepper as desired. You can serve any leftover dipping sauce in a small dish on the side.
