If you are looking for a quick and easy recipe for a delicious vegan red curry with tofu and vegetables, then this is the perfect recipe for you! In this recipe, we will be using red curry paste, coconut milk, and a variety of vegetables such as bell peppers, mushrooms, and baby corn.
Here are the steps:
Ingredients:
* 1 block of firm tofu (14 oz)
* 1 red bell pepper, sliced
* 8 oz of mushrooms, sliced
* 8 oz of baby corn, cut in half
* 1 tbsp of red curry paste
* 1 can of coconut milk (13.5 oz)
* 1 tsp of soy sauce
* 1 tsp of sugar
* 2 cloves of garlic, minced
* 1 inch of ginger, grated
* Cilantro, for garnish
Instructions:
1. Start by pressing the tofu to remove any excess water. Wrap the block of tofu in a clean towel and place a heavy object on top. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes.
2. Cut the tofu into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
3. In a large skillet, heat up some oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and ginger and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
4. Add the red curry paste and stir well to coat the bottom of the skillet. Cook for another minute until the spices become aromatic.
5. Add the bell pepper, mushrooms, and baby corn to the skillet and sauté for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are slightly softened.
6. Pour in the can of coconut milk and bring the mixture to a boil.
7. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and add the soy sauce and sugar. Stir well to combine.
8. Add the tofu pieces to the skillet and stir gently to coat them in the curry sauce. Cook for another 5 minutes until the tofu is heated through and the flavors have melded together.
9. Taste the curry and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Serve hot with steamed rice or naan bread.
