This is one of those use whatever you have that works recipes, I love it! I sautéed my tofu cubes after freezing for about an hour to firm up with a TB each of honey, olive oil, and curry powder. I ended up adding extra ts of curry and honey. I added freshly grated ginger while the tofu was sauteeing and now I feel like an idiot for not adding orange zest. I used nonfat yogurt, raisins in place of cranberries, cashews and almonds in place of walnuts, and used a apple and a peach, instead of grapes. I drizzled berry balsamic vinaigrette and mustard on top and mixed it in and that just made all the flavors pop. Way too strange for my family, but no matter. Fav ways to eat--with flavored Triscuits( the saltiness of the cracker and the sweetness of the tofu) and with a whole wheat tortilla, in a wrap with papaya and pineapple chunks folded in as well. whatever you do, you gotta love it!

I used tzatziki yogurt sauce and didn't have any grapes on hand; still delicious!

I made this a while ago and never since. LOL. Just getting around to posting. I must say that I really enjoy curried chicken salad, but also really like tofu. This recipe had nice aspects - grapes, nuts, zing from yogurt, & yummy curry flavor- but I found I had to pan sear the tofu first with garlic and curry powder to get any flavor into it & then with the addition of celery (YUCK) I just couldn't wrap my tastebuds around this one. After the addition of additional dried fruit, I was able to swallow down a bit of it (mostly felt bad abt wasting the food). Too many textures and it almost had a curried cardboard aftertaste. LOL. Just my opinion. Give it a go! You may like it.

I love curry but I just did not like this salad. It was too bland...the tofu had no flavor.

I really liked this one. I used lite tofu and fat free greek-style yogurt (Fage). I think it needs a little more spice, or toss in a few more cranberries or grapes. I ate mine in whole wheat tortillas, on lettuce, and in a pita. It was yummy.

I should have followed the advice of other raters and sauteed the tofu. Boiling it didn't make it too tasty. Otherwise a pretty decent recipe.

Very yummy. I am withholding the full 5 stars, though, since I reserve those for recipes I consider "outstanding". I brought this for a potluck to work and received many compliments. As mentioned in previous reviews, I would recommend you saute the tofu in olive oil with a few middle eastern spices for added flavor (I used garam masala, cumin seeds, and curry powder). I also decreased the amount of yogurt by about 25% and added a drizzle of honey. Served plain (not with pitas) and it was very good.

This is an excellent introduction to tofu and I have served it for many people, sometimes incognito. I highly recommend cooking the tofu in a pan, high heat, olive or sesame oil, with some cumin seeds, garam masala, curry powder, etc, beforehand. Also, be sparing with the yogurt and the flavours of the nuts and cranberries will come through.

My Personal Note I tried to keep the preparation for the tofu simple and I agree that it can be bland if just boiled. I usually saute the tofu in oil with cumin or a mixture of spices (like curry as suggested in the reviews) and let it sit in casserole dish in the oven at a low temp. I also interchange raisins and cranberries or use both.

Good but the tofu was a little too bland and didn't really absorb the sauce that well. I wi.ll try again however

Very tasty. I sauted my tofu with olive oil, curry powder, and honey instead of boiling. I used non-fat plain yogurt and added honey to the mixture. This is an excellent alternative to egg salad or chicken salad. Mine was served with whole wheat pitas! yum!

I left out the rice and used rasins in place of cranberries. I used a pre-marinated tofu block as the base. It was fantastic with wheat pita!!!
