My husband and I are big curries eaters, and I have tried probably 20 or so different curry recipes (many from this site). As far as the sauce goes, this was one of our least favorites. We enjoy spicy foods, and to us, this sauce tasted like what it was . . . watered down (because of the vegetable juices) coconut milk with just a hint of curry and ginger. That said, the blend of vegetables was marvelous, and I will use the same combination again in the future with a different sauce (perhaps a green curry, for example). Like several other reviewers, I sautéed the tofu on its own before adding it to the sauce (I added a little ginger, curry, and cayenne to the tofu before sauteeing, and I opted for sesame oil). The tofu held together well and I think it benefited from the added spices. If you want to try this recipe and you like spicy foods, I suggest spicing up your tofu before sauteeing it, and when preparing the sauce, I suggest measuring your ginger, curry, and green chili paste VERY generously.

Great recipe! Perfect amount of spice, flavor and heartiness. My fiancee' is a vegetarian, and she and I sometimes struggle to find ways to enjoy meals together. This was the perfect answer. We both love Thai foods, with me preferring more spice than her. This was perfect for both. She does not enjoy mushrooms, so we substituted snow peas ('substitute'?!) for mushrooms and it turned out wonderfully. Used sriracha as the chili paste and everyone turned out happy!

Sauteed the tofu after draining it for a bit, it was really good, really tasty. The 2 tsp of chili paste is pretty hot, so beware if feeding the little ones

this is probably one of the best thai curries i've had. although, i made a few modifications. i used two cans of coconut milk (1 regular and 1 light). i changed the quantity on the curry powder and chili paste along with the vegetables. and like others, i also cooked my tofu with peanut oil so it stays hard. i know it's "supposed" to be "vegetarian" but sometimes i add shrimp to it and it's even yummier.

Yum is all I have to say! Mmm Mmm Mmm! I didn't have enough room for all the vegetables. (I made a large batch!) Next time I'll make more curry sauce to compensate. Thx!

Browned the tofu cubes in oil for abt 30 min turning every so often. Drained on paper towels. Sliced two boneless chicken breasts and added to oil and sauteed for abt five min. I expaned the receipe to six and added more red cuury paste than called for. My wife loved it but I could have used even more red curry paste! I'll do this again.

It was easy, but it wasn't good. It was just missing the depth of a great curry. We were really disappointed.

Guys, this is quite possibly the most delicious way I've ever eaten tofu. Be really careful that your chili paste isn't too powerful. I cut the chili in half. Also, make sure that you don't overcook the Bok Choi. Fan-freaking-tastic recipe! Thanks so much!

Sooooo good. I did follow a lot of other reviewers advice and drained and fried up the tofu. I used a red curry paste and it was absolutely delicious!! My boyfriend was complaining the whole time I was cooking that he wanted chicken and then after he had a plate he went back for seconds!!!! I'm definitely looking forward to the leftovers tomorrow for lunch (surprisingly there is a serving left!!!)

Great recipe! This was my third attempt at Indian food and my most successful and flavorful of all. The mushrooms, tofu and bok choy taste awesome altogether, although I expected the coconut milk to be more present in the recipe. maybe I burned off too much of the water in the milk. Either way, I will DEFINITELY make this again...

I love this recipe! I have substituted a variety of cooking greens for the bok choy and have liked those results just as well. Delicious, flavorful dish!

Oh wow this was great! I also didnt have any chili sauce but used my thai chili-garlic sauce instead. Also, I didn't have any curry powder so I made the curry with spices my mom usually uses. I had about 1/2 tsp of turmeric, cumin powder, and a masala mix my mom had made which would mean that I also used a little garam masala as well (about a pinch). In addition I didn't have the majority of the veggies so I just sauteed my ginger, garlic and a little bit of onions (a few slivers) mixed it with the sauce, and then added fresh green bell peppers along with more slivers of a little bit of onion. This was great!

Only giving 4 stars because I used chicken instead of tofu and didn't use green onions. Might try tofu next time. Other than that, it was delicious. Will definitely make again.

A really great recipe to spice up dinner - literally! I didn't have chili paste, so instead I used red cayenne pepper. One tspn of the stuff knocked my socks off! I'll go for 1/2 next time... I only had two stalks of green onion and half a pound of tofu - which I froze for about an hour and then baked for 30 minutes on 150* - it stayed soft but held together. Really very easy, very healthy and wonderfully different!

I've been looking for a curry recipe that would duplicate the expensive dishes in Thai restaurants, and this is awesome! I prepared everything as stated for the actual curry sauce, but I used dried chives instead of green onions just because I had those on hand instead. It's the sauce that makes a curry recipe, regardless of the veggies you use. Those are merely a vessel to get the sauce to your mouth. :) Of all the veggies listed, someone in my house doesn't like one of them, so I just added cubed potatoes (boiled fork-tender first) and pad thai noodles (again, already cooked) to the sauce, refrigerated overnight and served for dinner the next day (leftover curry's always best!). That gave the flavors a chance to blend and absorb into the noodles/potatoes and--WOW! What a hit I had on my hands!! My family wants this on a regular rotation!
