Emily Mariko’s salmon bowl has been all over Instagram and TikTok lately with different reactions and attempts to try out the bowl. Following a plant-based diet and not eating any meat or fish has me feeling a little left out from these viral recipes so I thought I would share a vegan version of the salmon bowl made with tofu!
“Salmon” Tofu Filets:
- Drain and press your tofu
- Make the tofu marinade by combining: 2 nori sheets, 3 tbs miso paste, 1 cup of vegetable broth, 2 tbs rice vinger, 1 tbs lemon juice, 1 tbs oil, 1 tsp old bay seasoning, ½ tsp turmeric
- Cut your tofu into filets and let dit in the marinade for at least one hour
- Once marinated, coat the filets in cornstarch and cook in a large, oiled pan for a few minutes on each side
And you’re done! Here is the original TikTok to follow to recreate the rest of the salmon bowl!
