Gram Flour Scramble

 There are multiple ways to copy the taste and texture of egg. Plant-based scrambles come in a variety of ways: tofu, egg substitutes, and mung beans are all a couple options out there. One cheap and affordable way of making a scramble is with gram flour. I have made a gram flour omelette in the past, but this is definitely an easier recipe when you do not need to maintain the integrity of any shape. 

Gram flour scramble topped with green onion, and served with a side of salsa

1 cup gram flour

1 cup soy milk 

2 tsp kala namak (black salt) 

1 tsp sea salt

1 tsp freshly cracked black pepper

2 tbsp finely chopped red bell pepper

2 tbsp finely chopped red onion

1 tbsp green onion

2 tbsp neutral oil (I used canola)

1. In a mixing bowl, add gram flour, black salt, sea salt, and pepper. Mix with the fork until dry ingredients are combined

2. Bring a skillet to medium heat and add oil. As it heats up, chop up your red onion, red bell pepper, and green onion. Mix the red onion, the red bell pepper, and white part of the green onion in with the gram flour batter. 

3. Once the skillet has heated, pour the contents in and let it cook for a small amount of time (I would recommend covering it). 

4. After about 5-6 minutes, use a spatula to break it apart and flip over parts that need to be cooked on the other side.

5. Keep breaking up the mixture until it gets a scramble like appearance. Cook for another 6 minutes or until you see no wet part. 

6. Serve by topping it with the green part of the green onions. Enjoy!
