Vegan Chorizo Tofu Crumbles Recipes

Steps:

• Add the guajillo chiles and chiles de árbol to a heatproof bowl and pour in the 3 cups of boiling water. Allow the chiles to rehydrate for at least 10 minutes, gently pressing a bowl on top to submerge them in the water if needed.
• Once tender, add the chiles to a blender with ½ cup of the soaking liquid. Add the garlic, cumin, paprika, salt, oregano, coriander, clove, cinnamon, liquid aminos and vinegar, and blend for 1 to 2 minutes until completely smooth, stopping to scrape the sides of the blender as needed.
• Combine the crumbled tofu and minced mushrooms in a large bowl. Pour the blended mixture over the tofu and mushrooms, and mix until fully incorporated.
• Add the oil to a large (12-inch) pan over medium heat. Once the oil is hot and shimmering, add the soyrizo mixture.
• Cook for 20 minutes until the mixture begins to sear and lightly brown, stirring occasionally and scraping the bottom of the pan. The liquid from the tofu and mushrooms should be mostly absorbed.
• Serve as taco filling with diced onion, minced cilantro, guacamole and lime, or add to your favorite dishes that call for chorizo. Keep refrigerated for up to a week in an airtight container.

Steps:

• Put oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables soften, 3 to 5 minutes.
• With your hands, crumble tofu into the pan. Cook, stirring and scraping the bottom of the skillet occasionally and adjusting heat as necessary, until tofu browns and crisps as much or as little as you like, anywhere from 10 to 30 minutes.
• Sprinkle with the chili powder, cumin and cinnamon; stir and cook, continuing to scrape any browned bits from the bottom of the pan until the mixture is fragrant, a minute or two. Stir in vinegar and adjust the seasoning taste. Garnish with cilantro and scallions and serve with warm corn tortillas or over rice.
