You may adjust the amount of sauces based on your preferences though.

If you wish to reduce the amount of hot sauce or completely skip the hot sauce, feel free to do so!

So let us see how to make tofu and lettuce scramble easily using sauces & few other ingredients.

How To Make Seasoned Tofu Scramble With Lettuce?

To make easy, nutritious and delicious seasoned tofu scramble with lettuce, we use the following ingredients.

Ingredients to make seasoned tofu scramble with lettuce

super firm tofu 32 oz (or extra firm tofu, I used two 16 oz tofu blocks)

romaine lettuce hearts 3

salt adjust to taste

oil 4 tablespoons

minced fresh garlic 2 tablespoons

tomato sauce 4 tablespoons

soy sauce 2 tablespoons

hot sauce (sriracha) 1 tablespoons (may adjust to your preference)

barbecue sauce 1 tablespoon

Step by step instructions

Wash the lettuce very well and chop the lettuce leaves in medium sized pieces. Keep this lettuce aside in a large bowl.

Drain any water from the tofu and slice tofu in medium sized pieces and transfer the sliced tofu pices to a large sized frying pan or wok.

I actually placed the tofu blocks directly in the pan and sliced using the spatula, but if this sounds difficult for you, just slice them separately and add to a large sized frying pan.

Add 2 tablespoons of oil, minced garlic and enough salt, cook the tofu in medium heat for about 3 to 4 minutes until any water is evaporated and the tofu starts browning.

Gently scramble the tofu based on your preference. I like them slightly larger pieces, so I scrambled the tofu only a little based on my preference.

Add about half of the chopped lettuce, then cover the pan and cook in low heat for about 2 to 3 minutes.

Meanwhile mix all the sauces together in a bowl, to make the sauce mixture.

Once the lettuce is slightly wilted, open the pan and add the prepared sauce mixture and mix well to coat the tofu.

Add the remaining lettuce leaves too, then cover and cook the contents for another 2 to 3 minutes more.

Then, open the pan and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil and mix with the contents.

Let the contents cook in medium heat for another 2 to 3 minutes more until any liquid contents from the sauce or lettuce is all evaporated and the tofu is well mixed with the sauces and tofu.

Stir fry the tofu in medium heat for couple minutes more if you like. When you stir fry more time, the lettuce will wilt more, but you may garnish with more lettuce if you wish.

Serve hot for best results!

This scrambled tofu with lettuce and sauce is great to enjoy as a main dish itself, but you may also use it as a side dish with rice, quinoa etc or use it as filling for sandwiches or wraps as you wish!
