Great as a Beer Snack Too

Delicious whether pan-fried or grilled, tofu is a superfood rich not only in flavor but also in nutrients. It provides a feeling of fullness with a small amount while being low in calories, making it a popular food for those looking to control their weight through healthy eating habits. Following the light and tasty tofu noodle recipes, this time we have prepared a pizza recipe made with tofu. If you crave pizza but are concerned about the calories, try making tofu pizza.

Pan-fried Tofu Pizza

Ingredients

Tofu, onion, sausage, pasta sauce, pizza cheese

Instructions

① Cut the tofu into large pieces and remove moisture with a kitchen towel, then grill both sides until golden brown.

② In a pan with oil, saut? finely chopped onions and sausage.

③ When the onions are cooked, add pasta sauce and stir-fry.

④ Spread pasta sauce on the golden grilled tofu, then top with the toppings made in step ③.

⑤ Add pizza cheese, cover with a lid, and cook until the cheese melts.

It may sound elaborate, but this is a very simple recipe where you just saut? the toppings, pan-fry the tofu, and then add tomato sauce and cheese. The taste is excellent without spending much time or effort. It’s a healthier flavor compared to pizza made with flour dough! It feels like eating pizza with a soft crust. Since tomato sauce is added, the strong taste of tofu is muted, and it blends well with the cheese, so even those who dislike the beany taste of soy can enjoy it deliciously.

Spoonable Tofu Pizza

Ingredients

Tofu, egg, onion, sausage, pasta sauce, pizza cheese

Instructions

① Mash the tofu with a spoon or ladle, then beat and mix in the egg.

② In a pan with oil, saut? finely chopped onions and sausage.

③ When the onions are cooked, add pasta sauce and stir-fry.

④ In a pan with oil, cook the mashed tofu.

⑤ When the tofu is golden brown, spread pasta sauce on it, then top with the toppings made in step ③.

⑥ Add pizza cheese, cover with a lid, and cook over low heat until the cheese melts.

Unlike the tofu pizza introduced earlier, this one includes egg, making it richer in flavor. Think of it as the taste of pan-fried tofu coated with egg batter. The crispy crust made by spreading the mashed tofu thinly and grilling it is a masterstroke! Highly recommended for those who prefer a crispy crust over a soft one. It’s also great to enjoy it spicy with Tabasco hot sauce.
