From Real Simple. Yay tofu! Ingredients:
8 ounces firm tofu, cut into four 1/2-inch slices |
3 tablespoons thai red curry paste (found in the asian section of most supermarkets) |
3 tablespoons sugar |
2 tablespoons fish sauce (for vegetarians who don't eat fish) or 2 tablespoons tamari (for vegetarians who don't eat fish) |
1/2 lb green beans |
1/2 cup vegetable broth |
1 tablespoon peanut oil |
Directions:
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. 2. Combine the curry paste, sugar, and fish sauce; put half this sauce in a resealable plastic bag. Add the tofu, seal, and set aside for 15 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. |
