Quick Tofu Thai Curry

Takes about 15 minutes, just long enough to cook the rice, too!
Course: Main Course
Cuisine: Thai
Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • 1 onion sliced thin strips
  • 1 red bell pepper sliced thin strips
  • 2 cloves garlic chopped
  • 2 cups sugar snap peas sliced on the diagonal
  • 1 can bamboo shoots drained
  • 1 block extra firm tofu cut into 1-inch cubes

Sauce

  • 3 tablespoons Thai red curry paste
  • 1 15-oz can coconut milk full fat, or lite if you are watching your saturated fat intake
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 2 teaspoons chili garlic sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • In a skillet, add the onion and sauté 5 minutes, until it is translucent. Add a little broth or water if it starts to stick.
  • Add the garlic, red pepper, and snap peas and sauté for 3 minutes.
  • Add the bamboo shoots, red curry paste, coconut milk, brown sugar, soy sauce, lime juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and chili garlic sauce. Bring to a simmer.
  • Once simmering, add the tofu and cook about 5 to 8 minutes until the sauce is thickened and the veggies are tender.

Notes

Serve over rice.
