Tips:

  • Use firm or extra firm tofu: This will help the tofu hold its shape and not crumble when cooking.
  • Press the tofu before cooking: This will remove excess water and help the tofu absorb more flavor.
  • Cut the tofu and vegetables into uniform pieces: This will help them cook evenly.
  • Use a large pot or wok: This will give the ingredients plenty of room to cook without overcrowding.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot: If you add too many ingredients at once, they will not cook evenly.
  • Cook the curry over medium-high heat: This will help the vegetables and tofu cook quickly and evenly.
  • Stir the curry frequently: This will prevent the ingredients from sticking to the pot or wok and burning.
  • Add a little water or vegetable broth if the curry becomes too thick: This will help to thin it out and prevent it from burning.
  • Serve the curry hot with rice, naan, or roti: This is a traditional Indian meal that is sure to please everyone.
