Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tofu

    Press the firm tofu to remove excess moisture. Cut into bite-sized cubes.

  2. 2

    Chop the Vegetables

    Slice the bell peppers, carrots, and prepare the broccoli and snap peas.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté Tofu

    In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the cubed tofu and sauté until golden brown on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.

  2. 4

    Cook Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add a bit more oil if necessary, then add the sliced vegetables (bell peppers, broccoli, carrots, and snap peas). Stir-fry for about 3-5 minutes until they are tender but still crisp.

  3. 5

    Add Curry Paste

    Stir in your choice of curry paste and cook for another 2 minutes until fragrant.

  4. 6

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the sautéed tofu back to the skillet along with the coconut milk, vegetable broth, soy sauce, brown sugar, lime juice, and salt. Stir well to combine.

  5. 7

    Simmer

    Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and let it cook for about 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

Serving

  1. 8

    Garnish and Serve

    Serve the curry hot, garnished with fresh basil or cilantro and lime wedges. Enjoy!
