Masaman, Massaman, Mussuman Curry Tofu image

While Masaman Curry is commonly served with beef, I love the texture tofu adds to this spicy-sweet dish. You can use any protein you like, other common meats are chicken or shrimp. I use Mae Ploy Masaman Curry found at Asian grocery stores or higher-end grocery stores. Why spend $9+ on a single serving when you can make it at home for cheap and feed an army? I love this dish! Just typing the word 'curry' makes my mouth water. As an authentic alternative to sugar and lime juice use 1 T. sugar and 1 T. tamarind juice
