Easy Tofu Curry Recipe with Frozen Bell Peppers

Ingredients:

• 1 block firm tofu, pressed and cubed
• 1 can (14 oz) coconut milk
• 2-3 teaspoons curry powder (adjust to taste)
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1 onion, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
• 1 cup frozen bell peppers
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• Salt to taste
• Jasmine rice for serving

Instructions:

1. Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, and ginger. Sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.

2. Add curry powder. Stir and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

3. Pour in coconut milk, soy sauce, and brown sugar. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer.

4. Add cubed tofu and frozen bell peppers. Simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

5. If the curry seems too thin, simmer uncovered for a few extra minutes to reduce, or add a cornstarch slurry (1 tsp cornstarch mixed with 1 tbsp cold water).

6. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt as needed.

7. Serve hot over jasmine rice.

Notes:

• No need to thaw the frozen bell peppers before adding them to the curry.
• Feel free to add other vegetables you have on hand, fresh or frozen.
• Leftover curry often tastes even better the next day as flavors meld.
