This is an unbelievably easy recipe to create your own vegan scrambled eggs, using just firm tofu and a magic ingredient—Indian black salt (Kala Namak). Its strong egg-like smell comes from its high sulfide mineral content that is high in magnesium and iron. The turmeric adds anti-inflammatory healing power, and the tofu is rich in protein and iron. Witness its glory in just about 10 minutes or even less!
