Steps

Crumble a block of firm tofu into a pan over medium-high heat. You can optionally add your favorite cooking oil if desired. Sprinkle with turmeric, as this is for color and not flavor, use just enough to get your desired yellowy egg look. Add in cumin. Cook tofu 3-5 minutes until most of the water is absorbed. |

Add garlic and cook, stirring, for an additional minute until garlic turns golden. Sprinkle in nutritional yeast and stir until all of the liquid is absorbed, then quickly splash in enough soy sauce to create a texture that imitates scrambled eggs. Consider how dry or wet you prefer and aim for that. |
