Tofu Kothipori
"Kothipori" is a Malayalam word which means
"scrambled eggs".Kothipori is made with eggs,onion,
tomatoes and spices and is served on the road side
shops during night time. Today i saw a site
where the kothipori was made with porathas hmm...
sounds interesting .So i thought why not try with
tofu? Well i tired with tofu and came out good.
It looked like the kothipori that is made in
kerala but only difference is there is no egg
in it.
Ingredients
Firm Tofu- 1 container [140z]
shallots- 1/2 cup chopped
tomatoes-2
green chillies-2 thinly chopped
ginger-1 tsp thinly chopped
turmeric powder-1/2tsp
black pepper powder-1tsp[optional]
salt-to taste
coriander leaves-2 tbs chopped
vegetable oil-2 tsp
Method:
Squeeze the tofu and remove the water and
crumble in to small pieces .keep aside.
In a pan add oil and chopped shallots,ginger
and green chillies. When onion is translucent
add the tomatoes and saute until it is soft.Add
the scrambled tofu,turmeric powder and salt.
Saute until tofu is cooked and the water is
absorbed .Add black pepper powder and coriander
leaves. Remove from flame.This dish can be
served as a breakfast item.

Great idea of making tofu as egg alternative. For scrambled egg, I do the same except adding ginger. I'll try it. I am sure tofu kothipori tastes so good.
Nice...sorta like a egg bhurji na? Looks yummy.
Thanks you Rajee and homecooked. This is like egg bhurji only but without eggs. Good alternative for vegetarians.
