Tofu Curry
Easy and Tasty Tofu Curry with Vegetables
Ingredients
- 14oz/397g Firm or Extra Firm Tofu
- 1 medium red bell pepper sliced
- 1 medium green bell pepper sliced
- 1 medium red onion sliced
- 1/2 tsp cumin seeds
- 1 tsp ground turmeric
- 1.5 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp ginger powder
- 1 tbsp ground coriander
- 1 tsp garam masala
- 1/2 tsp red chili powder
- 3/4 cup tomato sauce or tomato puree
- 1/4 cup cilantro leaves chopped
- vegetable oil
- milk or cream optional
Instructions
- Press the tofu block firmly with a cloth to get the liquid out. Cut it into chunks.
- Heat up a pan and add a few tablespoons of vegetable oil. When the oil is hot, add cumin seeds. They’ll sizzle and you’ll smell them in a few seconds. Add sliced red onion, a pinch of salt and sauté until golden brown. Add sliced red and green bell peppers, 2 pinches salt. Sauté for a minute.
- Add ground turmeric, garlic powder, ground coriander, chili powder, ginger powder and garam masala. Mix that up and add tomato puree or tomato sauce. Stir and cook for about 5 minutes.
- Add ½ tsp salt, ½ tsp sugar, one cup of water. Stir and bring to a boil. Taste and add more salt if necessary. Add the tofu chunks. Mix gently. Cover and cook for 8 minutes. Top with chopped cilantro.
- Add a little milk or heavy cream if you want the dish to be creamy. Non dairy milk/coconut milk are good substitutes.
