Puttanesca Scramble

Recipe from Post Punk Kitchen

Serves 4

Inspired by the classic Italian dish, pasta puttanesca, this scramble is screaming with flavor. Olives, capers and plenty of fresh herbs make for an easy to throw together scramble that tastes like a Mediterranean feast you've been slaving over for hours.

2 tablespoons olive oil

6 - 8 cloves garlic, thinly sliced

1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

1 lb extra firm tofu, diced

4 roma tomatoes, diced

2 tablespoons fresh thyme

2 tablespoons fresh oregano

1/2 cup mixed olives, roughly chopped

1 tablespoons capers

1/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste

Preheat a large heavy bottomed pan over medium heat. Saute the garlic in the olive oil until lightly browned, but be careful not to burn. 3 minutes ought to do it. Add the red pepper flakes and the tofu and saute for about 10 minutes, until tofu is browned. Add a little extra oil if necessary.

Mix in tomatoes, thyme and oregano and cook for about 5 minutes, until tomatoes are a bit broken down but still whole. Add olives, capers and salt to taste. Cook just until heated through.
