Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Start by pressing the tofu to remove excess moisture. Peel and cube the sweet potatoes into bite-sized pieces. Rinse the baby corn and pearl onions.

  2. 2

    Roast the Sweet Potatoes

    Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Toss the sweet potato cubes with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for about 25-30 minutes, or until tender and golden.

  3. 3

    Fry the Tofu

    Cut the pressed tofu into cubes. In a non-stick skillet, heat some oil over medium-high heat. Add the tofu cubes and fry until golden brown on all sides. Remove from heat and set aside.

  4. 4

    Cook the Curry

    In a large pot, heat a little oil over medium heat. Add the pearl onions and sauté for 2-3 minutes. Then add the baby corn and cook for another 2 minutes. Stir in the green curry paste and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

  5. 5

    Combine Ingredients

    Pour in the coconut milk and bring to a simmer. Add the fried tofu and roasted sweet potatoes. Let everything simmer together for about 5-10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Once everything is heated through, serve the green coconut curry over popcorn rice. Garnish with fresh cilantro and a drizzle of SCL chili crisp to taste.
