Mix Tofu and Egg:

Add the eggs to the crumbled tofu mixture and stir in the sautéed spices and veggies. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Form the Balls:

Shape the tofu mixture into small balls using your hands or a spoon.

Pan-fry:

Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Lightly spray with oil or use a small amount of oil. Fry the tofu balls until golden brown on all sides (about 5-7 minutes).
