Mr Sheldrick’s Studying “Energy” Food 1 (c. 30 minutes)


Yes Gaby... more food!!!!

A little bit stir-fry, a little bit whatever, when you are hungry & need a break from studying—no matter, this filling combination of vegetables, tofu, and eggs is great any time of day to get you working better.

Something to add to you cooking collection: Look for chili-garlic sauce in the Asian section of your supermarket.

INGREDIENTS:

3 eggs
1 tablespoons of milk
2 teaspoons chili-garlic sauce
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup mushrooms, thinly sliced
1/4 cup capsicum, small dice
1 cup soft tofu, crumbled
1 spring onion, thinly sliced (white and light green parts)
1 tablespoon chopped fresh coriander

INSTRUCTIONS:

Combine eggs, milk, chili-garlic sauce, and salt in a mixing bowl and whisk until eggs are broken up and smooth. Leave this aside for a while.
Pour the olive oil into a frying pan over medium heat. When it foams, add your mushrooms and capsicum and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Cook it until the vegetables are soft and the pan is almost dry, about 5-10 minutes. Add the tofu, season with salt, and cook until heated through, about 3 minutes.
Reduce heat to low and pour the egg mixture into the pan. Gently stir until eggs thicken and begin to set, about 7 minutes. Sprinkle spring onion over eggs and stir to incorporate.
Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until eggs are completely cooked through, about 2 minutes more. Add the coriander, stir to combine, and remove from heat.
Eat it while its hot. Yummy!!! But give a mouthful or two to your parents.
Post comment about how yum it was & how it saved your life! lol
