Tofu Salad with Pea Sprouts
Tofu Salad with Pea Sprouts
Ingredients
- 30 g Peas for sprouts
- 100 g silken tofu
- 2 tbsp coconut oil
- spices to your liking
Instructions
- Soak the peas for sprouts in water for 8 hours. After soaking pour the peas into the sprouter of your choice. The peas should sprout untill the white root is 1 cm long. This takes 2- 3 days.
- If you wish to grow the peas into pea shoots you need to plant those peas in a tray or cup with soil. The pea shoots will grow to be 10 cm high in 2 weeks. They are nice and crisp then. Once the sprouts are done, cut the shoots 1 cm above the soil. You cannot regrow the shoots so put the soil and roots of the pea shoots in your green compost bin.
- Rinse the shoots and sprouts in water and they are ready. Cut the tofu in small cubes, fry them on a pan with coconut oil and lots of spices. Mix it all and your dish is ready.
- TIP You can exchange the Pea sprouts with Lentil sprouts or with Mung bean sprouts as they are also very rich in green protein.
