A herb-crusted Italian alla norma with stir-fried firm tofu, porcini mushrooms, spinach and basil, finished with parmesan and balsamic vinegar, served over ciabatta.
Ingredients
Instructions
Press the tofu between paper towels to remove excess moisture, then cut into thick slabs and season well.
Stir-fry the tofu over medium-high heat until crisp and golden on both sides, about 10 minutes, then set aside.
In the same pan, cook the porcini mushrooms, spinach and basil until wilted, about 3 minutes.
Return the tofu to the pan and toss with parmesan and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar for another 4 minutes.
Warm the ciabatta while everything finishes cooking.
Let the mixture rest off the heat for a couple of minutes so the flavors settle.
Pile the tofu and mushroom mixture onto the warm ciabatta and serve right away.
