Coconut Lime Tofu
Serves 2 30 minutes
Vibrant, creamy, and deeply satisfying — this coconut lime tofu hits all the right notes. The coconut cream brings richness, the lime cuts through it, and the ginger and garlic add warmth.
Step 1: Prepare the Tofu
Drain and pat dry the tofu, then coat in cornflour and salt for frying, or simmer in salted water for 10 minutes.
Step 2: Chop and Sauté the Aromatics
Dice the onion and fry over medium heat with a pinch of salt for 5–7 minutes. Add minced garlic, ginger, and diced chilli and cook until fragrant.
Step 3: Add the Dry Spices
Stir in the paprika, cayenne pepper, and a splash of water. Season with salt and black pepper.
Step 4: Add the Coconut and Lime
Pour in the coconut cream, squeeze in the lime juice, and let everything simmer gently.
Step 5: Finish and Serve
Add the tofu and chopped coriander. Serve hot with steamed rice.
