[edit] Preparation
Step 1 |
Egg replacer can be purchased at "Nature Food Store". |
Step 2 |
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place the tofu between 2 weighted cookie sheets and set aside for about 20 minutes. In a skillet, heat the oil and saute the vegetables and the herbs for 10 minutes or until tender. In a large bowl, fold in egg replacer, then add the remaining ingredients. Mash the pressed tofu either with a potato masher or your hands and add it to the bowl, along with the sauteed vegetables. Stir well - the mixture should be firm enough to form into balls. Using your hands or 2 spoons, pat the mixture into 1 1/2 inch balls and place on an oiled baking sheet. Bake for 20 to 30 minutes or until dark brown and firm to the touch. Serve with spaghetti and sauce. |
Step 3 |
Suggestion: Use ice cream scoop to form even balls. Makes about 12 meatballs. |
