This is inspired by a recipe in Patricia Wells's "Vegetable Harvest." The flavors are both sweet and pungent. Serve it on its own or over rice; Thai purple sticky rice looks particularly pretty against the orange vegetables but any type of rice will do. I'm very happy serving this over brown rice.

Steps:
- Heat the oil over medium heat in a heavy lidded skillet or wide saucepan and add the ginger and onion. Cook, stirring often, until the onion begins to soften, about 3 minutes. Add a pinch of salt, the tofu and the chiles, stir together, cover and cook gently for another 3 minutes, until the onion is soft but not browned. Add the curry powder, stir together, and add the lemon grass, carrots, squash, potatoes, and stock. Add salt to taste, bring to a simmer, cover and simmer 20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender but not mushy.
- Meanwhile place the coconut milk in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce by half.
- Stir the coconut milk into the vegetable ragout and combine well. Cover and simmer gently for 5 minutes. Remove the lemon grass stalk. Taste and adjust seasonings. Just before serving stir in the lime juice. Serve in wide bowls, with rice if desired, garnishing each bowl with chopped cilantro.
