Ingredients

  • 800g firm tofu, cubed
  • 400g broccoli florets
  • 300g mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons garam masala
  • 400ml coconut milk
  • 2 tablespoons coriander powder
  • 2 tablespoons cumin powder
  • 2 tablespoons curry powder
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • Salt to taste
  • Fresh coriander leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preparation: Begin by pressing the tofu to remove excess moisture. Cut it into bite-sized cubes and set aside.
  2. Sauté the Vegetables: In a large pan or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté for 3-4 minutes until they start to soften.
  3. Add Broccoli: Toss in the broccoli florets and continue to cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Spice It Up: Add the garam masala, coriander powder, cumin powder, and curry powder to the pan. Stir well to coat the vegetables in the spices.
  5. Add Tofu: Gently fold in the cubed tofu, ensuring it’s coated with the spice mixture. Cook for 2-3 minutes.
  6. Coconut Milk: Pour in the coconut milk, stirring to combine all ingredients. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
  7. Season: Add salt to taste and let the curry simmer for about 10-15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
  8. Serve: Once the curry has thickened slightly, remove from heat. Garnish with fresh coriander leaves if desired.

This Tofu and Broccoli Curry is not only a feast for the taste buds but also a wholesome meal that can be enjoyed with rice or naan. It's a great way to introduce more plant-based meals into your diet, and the vibrant spices will make it a hit at your next gathering! Enjoy your cooking adventure!
