Tofu is light, so I wanted to make the sauce as substantial as possible. Use canned coconut milk with the caramelized onions. Like heavy cream, coconut milk will thicken a sauce, making it luxurious in almost no time. Then, to add contrasting texture, I decided to use nuts as well. Both walnuts and cashews do splendidly here. But the bottom line is the onions: they really must be browned carefully and thoroughly, without burning. (Sam Sifton)

Steps:
- Put oil in a 10- or 12-inch nonstick skillet and turn heat to medium-high. A minute later, add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until edges of onion pieces are well-browned, about 10 minutes (for best flavor, onions must brown but not burn). Add curry powder and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds or so; add nuts and cook, stirring occasionally, for about a minute.
- Add coconut milk. Stir, bring to a boil and reduce heat to medium. Add tofu, stir and let tofu heat through for about 3 minutes. Stir in soy, then taste and adjust seasoning with soy, salt and/or cayenne as necessary. Serve over white rice.
