Monica's Galaxy-Famous Enchiladas Verde
Drain 1 lb. firm tofu
(squeeze out excess water by compressing between paper towels)
Cut into cubes
In a Tupperware-type container with a lid, combine:
1/2 cup cornmeal
1/2 cup spelt or whole-wheat flour
1/2 tsp Celtic or Himalayan seasalt
1/2 tsp cumin
1/4 tsp black pepper
Put the lid on and shake to mix
Toss in cubed tofu
Shake to coat the tofu
Lightly pan-fry the breaded tofu in vegetable oil until golden, set aside
Meanwhile, saute:
1/2 yellow or white onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, mashed
1 jalepeno or serrano pepper, chopped*
in olive oil
Lightly toss the tofu and onion/garlic/pepper mixture
Set aside
Meanwhile, steam corn tortillas OR ligthly fry in vegetable oil (dip tortilla in hot oil just until it begins to bubble, flip over, then do the same on the other side...when just starting to bubble, remove from oil)
Fill steamed (or lightly fried) tortilla with tofu mixture
Roll up tortilla like an enchilada
Smother in verde sause (I use Arribas' brand...Herdez works well too...or you can make your own tomatillo sauce)
Put into a large baking dish, and bake at 375 for 10 minutes
Top with dollup of organic (hormone-free) sour cream or vegan sour cream alternative
Serve with Spanish rice, vegetarian refried beans, flour tortillas, and guacamole salad
Enjoy!
*Note: You can leave out the green pepper if you don't like it too hot
