Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 package (14 ounces) firm or extra-firm tofu, drained well
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 small onion, halved and thinly sliced
1 tablespoon curry powder
Coarse salt and ground pepper
4 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup half-and-half
1 box (10 ounces) frozen cut green beans, thawed
4 plum tomatoes, halved lengthwise and cut crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces (3 cups)
Cooked white rice, for serving

Steps:

  • Halve tofu horizontally and then crosswise to make 4 rectangles. Cut each rectangle into 2 triangles. Press tofu as directed on page 111.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large (12-inch) nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook tofu, turning once, until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
  • Reduce heat to medium. Add remaining tablespoon oil, onion, and curry powder. Season generously with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring often, until onion is soft, about 5 minutes. Add garlic; cook 1 minute.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low. Add half-and-half and 1/2 cup water; bring to a gentle simmer. Add tofu and green beans. Cover; cook until beans are bright green, about 2 minutes. Uncover; add tomatoes. Cook until soft, 3 to 4 minutes. Serve over rice.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover tofu and green beans. The curry sauce is also very versatile. I've used it on chicken, fish, and even vegetables.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and it was much better. I would recommend using more spices if you like a flavorful curry.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. The tofu was crispy and the green beans were cooked perfectly. I would recommend using less chili powder next time.
