Banana Tofu Curry Recipes

THAI CURRY TOFU

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add tofu cubes, season with seasoned salt and fry until golden on all sides, stirring occasionally, about 15 minutes. Remove to paper towels, and set aside.
• Melt butter or margarine in the same skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic; cook and stir until tender. Stir in coconut milk, curry powder, salt, pepper and cilantro. Return the tofu to the skillet. Simmer over low heat for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.

PANANG CURRY WITH TOFU AND VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Combine water, brown rice, soy sauce, and salt in a rice cooker. Cover and cook according to manufacturer's directions, about 35 minutes.
• Heat vegetable oil in a wide skillet over medium heat. Add curry paste; cook and stir until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add coconut milk, fish sauce, white sugar, and lime leaves. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, covered, until flavors combine, about 5 minutes. Stir in tofu, broccoli, red bell pepper, and carrots. Cook and stir until vegetables are tender but not soft, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Serve panang curry over brown rice.

BANANA TOFU CURRY

Steps:

• Use bananas that are ripe but not mushy.
• Saute the onion in a bit of white wine.
• Heat the coconut milk over a medium-high flame.
• Add the spices, coconut, and raisins and stir thoroughly.
• Reduce heat to medium, add the bananas, and continue to cook until the bananas are hot (stir lightly so they don't disintegrate.) Add the tofu, and milk as needed to thin out the sauce.
• As soon as the tofu is hot this is ready to serve.
• Heating and stirring beyond that point can turn this into a tasty mush.
• Serve with basmati rice, with a side of nuts, raisins, and chutney.

BANANA CURRY

Steps:

• Heat vegetable stock in pan, add half the curry paste and half of the bananas.
• Toss until coated and remove from the pan, pour over the lime juice.
• Add remaining curry paste and onions into the pan. Cook until onions are soft. Add the chicken and cook until golden brown. Stir in the vegetables, water and stock powder.
• Add coconut cream and simmer until just thickened.
• Add banana mixture. Mix through the remaining bananas and allow to heat through.
• Sprinkle with the basil and serve with rice.

TOFU CURRY

Steps:

• Heat 1/2 tbsp of the oil in a large, wide, non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat. Fry the tofu with a pinch of salt for 5 mins, turning every couple of minutes until golden brown. Remove to a plate using a slotted spoon.
• Add the remaining oil to the pan, then fry half the onions for 5 mins, stirring often until golden brown. Add the ginger and garlic paste, stir-frying for a minute, then add the turmeric and cook for another 30 seconds to release the flavour.
• Stir in the coconut milk, then return the tofu to the pan along with the lime juice and 100ml water, and simmer for 5 mins. Stir in the spinach and the coriander, and cook for 1 min until wilted, then season.
• Serve the curry in bowls topped with the coriander leaves and the remaining onion, the lime wedges for squeezing over, and the chapatis on the side.
