Method

  1. Step 1Marinate the tofu2h

    Slice the tofu into large chunky pieces. Marinate the tofu for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best flavor.

    Note

    The large chunks need time to absorb the marinade — don't skip this or you'll have bland tofu.

  2. Step 2Roast the tofu25 min

    Roast the marinated tofu in the oven until golden on the edges. This removes excess water and adds texture and flavor.

    Note

    Roasting at around 400°F / 200°C for 20-25 minutes works well. Frying doesn't give the same result.

  3. Step 3Make the curry sauce10 min

    In a pan, combine coconut milk and lime juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Simmer until the sauce is creamy and the flavors meld together.

    Note

    Fresh curry sauce is much better than store-bought — it's easy and worth the effort.

    Rice noodles also work really well if you want to switch it up.
