I love the spicy tomato base of shakshuka. It's perfect for the colder months, or those nights where you really just need a dish with flavour. The last time I made this dish, was over a year ago, and with the traditional eggs baked inside. But this time I wanted to try a totally vegan version. Instead of the eggs I mixed some soy yoghurt with a little kala namak salt to give it an eggy taste, and some nutritional yeast for a cheesy overtone. The colours of the tomato even see

It's known as black salt, but it's

I think when changing to more plant based eating, Tofu Scramble is probably one of the first things that people try and make. Most likely as it's a replacement for Eggs, which a lot of people find very difficult to let go of - including me.
