Time 25m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 ounces firm tofu, cut into four 1/2-inch slices*
3 tablespoons Thai red curry paste (found in the Asian section of most supermarkets)
3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons fish sauce (for vegetarians who don't eat fish) or 2 tablespoons tamari (for vegetarians who don't eat fish)
1/2 lb green beans
1/2 cup vegetable broth
1 tablespoon peanut oil

Steps:

  • Place the tofu between layers of paper towels and weigh them down with a heavy skillet to remove excess water. Set aside to drain for 10 minutes.
  • Combine the curry paste, sugar, and fish sauce; put half this sauce in a resealable plastic bag. Add the tofu, seal, and set aside for 15 minutes.
  • In a saucepan, combine the green beans, broth, oil, and the remaining curry. Simmer until the beans are tender, about 5 minutes. Cover to keep warm.
  • Lightly coat a nonstick skillet with vegetable cooking spray and place it over medium heat. When hot, add the tofu and cook until golden, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a dinner plate and cover.
  • Serve with the green beans.
