Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 1 Block(15oz.) Extra firm Tofu
- 1 Can(about 14 oz.) Full fat coconut milk (coconut cream)
- 1/2 Cup Vegetable broth
- 6 Cloves Garlic
- 1 Inch piece Ginger, peeled
- 1/3 Cup Cashew butter
- 1 Tablespoon Thai red curry paste, vegan
- Juice of 1 Lime
- 3 Tablespoons Soy sauce or coconut aminos, divided
- 1 Tablespoon Coconut Oil
- 3 Large Carrots, chopped
- 2 Cups Broccoli, cut into florets
- 2 Cups Green Beans, trimmed
- Rice for serving
Instructions
- If you are using tofu, press it first so it can get firm and crispy when stir fried. If you need a step-by-step guide for pressing tofu, check out the tofu guide in the recipe notes.
- Make the red curry cashew sauce. In a blender, add the coconut milk, vegetable broth, garlic, ginger, cashew butter, Thai red curry paste, lime juice and 2 Tablespoons of soy sauce or aminos. Blend for a few seconds to combine. Set aside.
- Then cut the tofu into cubes, and cut your veggies. Heat the coconut oil in a large non stick skillet.
- Now add the tofu to the skillet, brown on each side for 2-3 minutes, or until the tofu is all brown and firm. Reducing heat as needed.
- Next, add the vegetables. Toss to combine, drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon of soy sauce or aminos and saute for about 5-10 more minutes or until the veggies are cooked.
- Once the tofu and veggies are cooked, pour about half of the red curry cashew sauce into the skillet. Toss to coat everything in sauce and simmer on low for a minute to let the sauce thicken.
- Serve immediately over rice, pouring some of the remaining red curry cashew sauce over the stir fry and rice. I like to drizzle with sriracha and squeeze more lime on top!
