Tofu Picadillo Food
PICADILLO
Steps:
- In a large skillet over medium heat, saute onions, garlic, and pepper in olive oil until softened, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add ground beef and olives and continue stirring to break up and brown the meat. Season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. When beef has browned, add tomato sauce gradually while stirring. Cook 1 to 2 minutes longer to incorporate sauce.
- Serve with rice and beans or tortillas.
PICADILLO
Picadillo is one of the great dishes of the Cuban diaspora: a soft, fragrant stew of ground beef and tomatoes, with raisins added for sweetness and olives for salt. Versions of it exist across the Caribbean and into Latin America. This one combines ground beef with intensely seasoned dried Spanish chorizo in a sofrito of onions, garlic and tomatoes, and scents it with red-wine vinegar, cinnamon and cumin, along with bay leaves and pinches of ground cloves and nutmeg. For the olives you may experiment with fancy and plain, but rigorous testing here suggests the use of pimento-stuffed green olives is the best practice. A scattering of capers would be welcome as well.

Steps:
- Put the olive oil in a large, heavy pan set over a medium-high flame, and heat until it begins to shimmer. Add onions, chorizo and garlic, stir to combine and cook until the onions have started to soften, approximately 10 minutes.
- Add the ground beef, and allow it to brown, crumbling the meat with a fork as it does. Season to taste with salt and black pepper.
- Add tomatoes, vinegar, cinnamon, cumin, bay leaves, cloves and nutmeg and stir to combine. Lower the heat, and let the stew simmer, covered, for approximately 30 minutes.
- Uncover the pan, and add the raisins and the olives. Allow the stew to cook for another 15 minutes or so, then serve, accompanied by white rice.

- Wrap tofu in a clean kitchen towel and press on all sides to remove as much moisture as possible. Alternatively, you can set something heavy on top (such as a cast iron skillet), and let it press for about 15 to 20 minutes, or even longer for firmer tofu.Using your hands or a fork, crumble tofu into pieces (similar to the size of ground beef), leaving a few chunks for texture. Heat 2 Tbsp. of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high. Once hot, add tofu and cook, without stirring, for 3 minutes. Stir, and continue cooking, stirring only occasionally (every 3 minutes or so) to allow optimal browning, for about 12 minutes. Transfer tofu to a bowl.
- Add remaining 1 Tbsp. oil to the pan, along with onion and bell pepper. Cook 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until soft. Add garlic, smoked paprika, cumin, oregano, coriander, and cinnamon; cook 1 more minute, until aromatic.Add tofu back to pan and stir well to coat with spices. Add crushed tomatoes, vegetable broth, and salt; bring mixture to a simmer.
- Simmer tofu picadillo, covered, for 15 minutes, removing lid only once or twice to stir. Remove lid, add olives and olive brine (or vinegar), and continue cooking, uncovered, for 15 more minutes, stirring only occasionally. (The less you stir, the better browning and crisping of the tofu you'll get).Stir in raisins and/or cilantro right before serving.
