Lime-Curry Tofu Stir-fry

By: kprzy 
"This is a quick and tasty sweet and sour dish. I like to marinate the tofu in the same sauce used on the dish, and then bake it at 375 degrees for 20 minutes-- it makes the tofu really take on the flavor of the sauce."

Original Recipe Yield 4 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons peanut oil
  • 1 (16 ounce) package extra-firm tofu, cut into bite-sized cubes
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger root
  • 2 tablespoons red curry paste
  • 1 pound zucchini, diced
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced
  • 3 tablespoons lime juice
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 (14 ounce) can coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh basil

Directions

  1. Heat the peanut oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add the tofu and stir-fry until golden brown. Remove the tofu and set aside, leaving the remaining oil in the wok.
  2. Stir the ginger and curry paste into the hot oil for a few seconds until the curry paste is fragrant and the ginger begins to turn golden. Add the zucchini and bell pepper; cook and stir for 1 minute. Pour in the lime juice, soy sauce, maple syrup, coconut milk, and tofu. Bring the coconut milk to a simmer, and cook a few minutes until the vegetables are tender and the tofu is hot. Stir in the chopped basil just before serving.
