Ingredients:

  • 8 oz firm tofu , cut into four 1/2-inch slices
  • 3 tbsp thai red curry paste (found in the asian section of most supermarkets)
  • 3 tbsp sugar
  • 2 tbsp fish sauce (for vegetarians who don'tsp eat fish) or 2 tbsp tamari (for vegetarians who don'tsp eat fish)
  • 1/2 lb green beans
  • 1 tbsp peanut oil

  1. Place the tofu between layers of paper towels and weigh them down with a heavy skillet to remove excess water. Set aside to drain for 10 minutes.

  3. In a saucepan, combine the green beans, broth, oil, and the remaining curry. Simmer until the beans are tender, about 5 minutes. Cover to keep warm.
  4. Lightly coat a nonstick skillet with vegetable cooking spray and place it over medium heat. When hot, add the tofu and cook until golden, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a dinner plate and cover.
  5. Serve with the green beans.
