"This dish is inspired by a Persian dish: Omelette Irani. It's more of a scrambled egg than an omelette, but that's the name of the dish and it doesn't change how delicious it is. Once again, silken tofu is used instead of eggs, but you can modify the dish to suit your taste and requirements. This dish is anti-inflammatory! Mustard oils in garlic and onions, unsaturated fatty acids in olive oil, curcumin in turmeric, antioxidants in cinnamon and vitamin C, and lycopene in tomatoes are the active ingredients that protect your body from chronic inflammation.
