Vegetarian adobo

This Vegan Tofu Adobo or Adobong Tokwa is a vegan take on the classic Filipino dish, that’s commonly cooked using chicken or pork. This version uses tokwa, which is tofu in Filipino that I sliced into cubes and pan-fried to crisp before cooking down adobo-style. It’s packed full of flavour with the tofu acting like sponges and absorbing all the flavour. You can’t pass off on rice with this dish!

Adobo is a classic Filipino dish in which meat is cooked in a flavorful marinade of soy sauce, vinegar, and a handful of herbs. The sauce is simple to make, and incredibly complex in flavor. And it’s ahh-mazingly good! Like, so good, that the first time a friend showed me how to make adobo years ago, I cooked it repeatedly for over a week because I just couldn’t imagine eating anything else. I think I made it until I used up an entire bottle of white vinegar. Yes, it was THAT good. Adobo…

This vegan adobo has been a hit with so many friends and family I’m so glad to finally share this classic Filipino dish with you!

My favourite flavours from Filipino Adobo meets spaghetti through this plate of Vegan Adobo Pasta. Adobo is probably the most popular Filipino dish and is one that I grew up enjoying. This adobo pasta is packed with all my favourite flavours from Filipino adobo - it has umami from the mushrooms, savoury, sour, and some sweetness for the sauce that coats the spaghetti really well.

This Vegan Filipino Adobo using extra firm tofu (tokwa) and mushroom (kabute) is a vegan take on the classic Filipino dish. Adobo was a staple dish at home growing up and we’d always have it with either plain rice or Sinangang, which is Filipino Fried Garlic Rice for the perfectly hearty combo.

A super tasty vegan and vegetarian tofu adobo with no pressing or marinading time using my trademark shortcuts, serve it with steamed rice and some greens.

Adobo—both a style of preparation as well as the name of a dish—is one of the most widely known foods of the Philippines, often referred to as its national dish. To make adobo, which can be wet (very saucy) or dry (crispier and less soupy), pork, chicken, tubers, vegetables, squid, lamb, shrimp, or even duck, is simmered in vinegar, often with soy sauce, black peppercorns, and bay leaves. This recipe channels the same flavors of bright vinegar and dark soy sauce, using eggplant as the base…
