Preparation

Preparation

1. Prepare the Tofu

Drain the tofu and press it for about 15-20 minutes to remove excess moisture. Cut it into bite-sized cubes.

2. Prepare the Vegetables

While the tofu is pressing, slice the bell pepper and carrot into thin strips. Prepare the broccoli florets and snap peas by washing them thoroughly.

Cooking

3. Cook the Tofu

In a large pan or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the tofu cubes and cook until golden brown on all sides, about 8-10 minutes. Remove the tofu from the pan and set aside.

4. Make the Curry Sauce

In the same pan, add the red curry paste and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Stir in the coconut milk, vegetable broth, soy sauce, brown sugar, and lime juice. Bring to a simmer.

5. Add the Vegetables

Add the prepared bell pepper, carrot, broccoli, and snap peas to the curry sauce. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.

6. Combine with Tofu

Return the cooked tofu to the pan, stirring gently to combine. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

Serving

7. Serve

Serve the coconut curry tofu over a bed of cooked jasmine rice. Garnish with fresh basil leaves and a sprinkle of chili flakes for added heat.
