Bursting with flavours and goodness this smoked tofu goulash is made with sweet potatoes, peppers and lots of smoked paprika.
A comforting dish, this recipe is straightforward to make. You can substitute smoked tofu for plain tofu if you prefer.
I created this recipe for Tofoo, a brand new tofu range handmade to a traditional Japanese recipe in small batches in Yorkshire.
Tofoo is organic (certified by the Soil Association), non-GM and also free of gluten, wheat, yeast and dairy. You can read more about Tofoo here.
Smoked with beechwood, Tofoo Smoked adds a distinctively rich flavour which is also not too strong.

Absolutely delicious, packed with flavour and colour. Makes you happy just to eat! My husband, who’s an avowed meat eater, loves this dish.

Could I replace the tofu with a bean and if so which would you recommend?
Hi Jaci, Yes you can replace the tofu with beans. Canned butter beans should work well. Simply rinse and drain them well before adding to the dish once the sweet potatoes are cooked (step 9). Let me know how it works out. Annabelle x
