Ingredients

• 1 cup Chickpea flour
• 3 tablespoons Nutritional yeast
• 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseed
• 1.5 cups Water
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 14 ounces Firm tofu
• 0.5 teaspoon Kala namak (black salt)
• 0.25 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Chives

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the chickpea flour, nutritional yeast, ground flaxseed, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, and black pepper.

Step 2

Gradually add in the water and soy sauce, whisking until you have a smooth, thick batter.

Step 3

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.

Step 4

Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter into the skillet, shaping it into a steak-like form. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden and slightly crisp.

Step 5

Repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding more olive oil as necessary. Set the cooked steaks aside.

Step 6

Drain the tofu and press it to remove excess moisture. Cut it into slices about 1/2 inch thick.

Step 7

Sprinkle the tofu slices on both sides with kala namak and turmeric for an egg-like flavor and color.

Step 8

In the same skillet, heat the remaining olive oil over medium heat, and add the tofu slices.

Step 9

Cook for 5 minutes on each side until golden brown and heated through.

Step 10

Serve the chickpea steaks topped with the tofu ‘fried eggs’. Sprinkle with chopped chives before serving. Enjoy your hearty vegan breakfast!
