Description

Cozy up with this easy Tofu Bourguignon—a vegan twist on beef bourguignon with tofu, mushrooms, and veggies in a rich, savory red wine sauce.


Ingredients

Scale
  • ¼ cup flour
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon salt (optional)
  • 1 (14-ounce) container tofu, drained, cubed
  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil
  • 2 teaspoons vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 cup red wine
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • ¼ teaspoon salt (optional)
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 5 small (about 2.5 ounces each, or 12 ounces total) carrots, sliced into ¼-inch pieces
  • 1 ½ pounds potatoes, peeled, chopped into 1-inch pieces
  • 8 ounces brown mushrooms, sliced


Instructions

  1. Place flour, black pepper, and salt in a small bowl. Add tofu cubes, and toss to coat.
  2. Heat avocado oil in a large sauté pan or Dutch oven. Add tofu, reserving remaining flour mixture for broth. Pan-fry over medium-high heat, turning frequently, until golden on all sides (about 9-10 minutes). Transfer the tofu to a dish, reserving crumbs in the pan or pot. Remove from heat.
  3. Add vinegar, soy sauce, red wine, vegetable broth, salt (optional), and bay leaves to the pot. Whisk in remaining flour mixture until smooth. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat.
  4. Add onion, carrots, and potatoes. Reduce temperature to meat, cover, and cook until tender (about 25-30 minutes), stirring frequently.
  5. Add brown mushrooms and tofu, and cook for an additional 4 minutes. Adjust black pepper and salt, according to taste preference.
  6. Remove bay leaves. Serve immediately.
  7. Makes 8 (about 2 cups each) servings.
