Ingredients
  • 14 oz firm tofu, drained and pressed
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1-inch piece of ginger, grated
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 zucchini, sliced
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 can (14 oz) coconut milk
  • 2 tablespoons red curry paste
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • Fresh cilantro, for garnish
  • Salt and pepper to taste
Directions
  1. Prepare the Tofu: Cut the pressed tofu into cubes. In a bowl, combine soy sauce and cornstarch, then gently toss the tofu cubes in the mixture. Let it marinate for at least 10 minutes.
  2. Sauté the Tofu: In a large skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Once hot, add the marinated tofu cubes and cook until golden brown on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  3. Cook the Aromatics: In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of oil. Sauté the chopped onion until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and ginger, cooking for another minute until fragrant.
  4. Add Vegetables: Stir in the chopped red bell pepper, zucchini, and broccoli. Sauté for 5 minutes until the vegetables start to soften.
  5. Make the Curry Sauce: Pour in the coconut milk and add the red curry paste, maple syrup, and lime juice. Mix well and bring to a gentle simmer.
  6. Combine Ingredients: Add the cooked tofu back into the skillet and stir to coat it in the curry sauce. Simmer for an additional 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
  7. Season and Serve: Taste the curry and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve hot, garnished with fresh cilantro.
