  • 1 firm tofu block (454g), crumbled
  • 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 60 ml (¼ cup) chili powder
  • 5 ml (1 tsp) ground cumin
  • Salt, pepper and Tabasco-style hot sauce, to taste
  • 60 ml (¼ cup) ketchup

  • 1 can (796 ml) diced tomatoes
  • 1 can (540 ml) red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
  • 250 ml (1 cup) frozen corn nibs Or canned corn
  • 10 hot dog buns, toasted or warmed, if you wish

 

Preparation

  1. In a large pot over medium-high heat, heat the oil and cook the onion for about 2 minutes, or until browned.
  2. Add the tofu, garlic, chili powder, cumin, salt, pepper and hot sauce. Cook for 2 minutes while stirring. 
  3. Add the ketchup and molasses and continue cooking while stirring for another minute. 
  4. Add the vinegar, tomatoes, beans and corn
  5. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer gently for about 45 minutes. Tip: Use the cooking time to prepare your side dishes.
  6. Serve in the hot dog buns.

 

 Variations:

  • Serve the chili in a bowl with toasted pita or tortillas on the side.
  • Chili dogs are great “au gratin”! Just add 15 to 30 ml (1 to 2 tbsp) of grated cheese on top of each prepared bun and grill until the cheese has melted.
