Ingredients
Method
Step 1
Cut the tofu into 2cm cubes. Chop the capsicum, carrot and celery stick into bite-sized chunks and shred the celery leaves. Set aside.Step 2
Heat a large frying pan on a medium heat. Heat the oil, then add the onion and garlic. Cook until soft, about 5 minutes, then add the tofu, paprika and season to taste. Stir well so that the tofu is coated with the paprika. Add the chopped vegetables and the canned tomatoes. Cook over a medium heat for 5 minutes. Then add the potatoes and vegetable stock and simmer for 25-30 minutes.Step 3
Serve hot sprinkled with flat-leaf parsley and toasted pita breads or couscous, and green goddess dressing.Step 4
To make the green dressing, place the herbs and spring onion in a blender or food processor fitted with the steel blade. Process until very, very finely minced. Add oil and vinegar. Process for just a few seconds longer, then transfer to a bowl or container. Stir in yogurt, and season to taste. Taste to adjust vinegar, then whisk until uniformly blended. Cover tightly and chill until use.
Tips
- Traditional goulash is like thick rustic soup, but if you prefer a thicker stew, double the quantity of potatoes and add them at the same time as the other vegetables.
- If you freeze the tofu for at least one day to change the texture and make it suitable for lengthy cooking.
- Can be enjoyed with or without the dressing
