Why This Recipe Stands Out

A hearty and nutritious way to start your day. It combines crispy potatoes, flavorful tofu, and vibrant veggies for a satisfying meal that’s both filling and plant-based. Plus, it’s easy to customize with your favorite spices and toppings.

Cooking Tips You Should Know

- Use firm or extra-firm tofu to achieve a better texture when cooking.
- Press the tofu well to remove excess moisture before crumbling it.
- Cook the potatoes until they are golden and crispy for the best contrast in texture.

Step 1

Put the potatoes in a big pot, cover them with salted water, and bring it to a boil. Lower the heat and let them simmer until they’re tender, which should take about 10 minutes. Drain them well and set aside.

Step 2

Heat 1 1/2 tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet or on a griddle. Add the potatoes and gently smash each one down to about half an inch thick using the back of a spatula. Cook them until they’re golden and crispy on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Season with some pepper, then transfer the crispy potatoes to a large bowl.

Step 3

In the same pan, warm the remaining olive oil over medium-high heat. Toss in the kale, cabbage, onion, and bell pepper, and sauté everything for around 3 minutes until the veggies start to soften. Crumble the tofu over the veggies, pour in the soy sauce, and keep cooking until the liquid has mostly evaporated, about 3 to 5 minutes.

Step 4

Season the mixture with salt and pepper, then add it to the bowl with your crispy smashed potatoes. Give everything a good mix, and you’re ready to dig in!

Serving Ideas

Serve this with a side of fresh fruit or a simple green salad to add brightness to the meal. A drizzle of hot sauce or a sprinkle of fresh herbs like parsley or chives can add an extra layer of flavor. It also pairs well with whole-grain toast or avocado slices.

Reheating And Storage

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet over medium heat to keep the potatoes crispy. Avoid microwaving if possible, as it can make the potatoes soggy.

Added extra herbs and it really brought out the flavors. The tofu was nicely cooked, not rubbery at all.
