** What kind of tofu should I use?**

For this recipe, firm tofu is required where 170g per serving is acceptable according to Monash University. Avoid the silken kind as this is too high in FODMAPs to serve for a main serving where just 39g is acceptable.

Can I substitute any ingredients?

If you don't have nutritional yeast, simply leave it out. The tamari/ soy sauce can be substituted with sea salt, to taste. Cumin and caraway seeds add depth to the dish, but if you’re not a fan, you can also leave them out. Herbs are integral to bringing flavor and vibrancy, and try adding basil or parsley in place of cilantro for another variation.
