Steps:
- Wrap tofu in 2 to 3 layers of paper towels and place on a plate. Place a second plate on top to encourage fluid out of the tofu. Let sit until paper towels are saturated, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking tray.
- Discard wet paper towels and cube tofu. Place on the prepared baking tray.
- Bake in the preheated oven until adequately dry, about 20 minutes.
- While the tofu is baking, drain pineapple chunks, reserving juice.
- Combine coconut milk, liquid aminos, ginger, curry paste, chili powder, curry powder, and garlic in a large skillet over medium heat. Add reserved pineapple juice and bring to a boil. Reduce temperature to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes.
- Mix cornstarch and water together in a small bowl; add to the coconut milk mixture and whisk until slightly thickened.
- Stir in basil and jalapeno; cook for 1 minute. Add bok choy, spinach, green onions, mushrooms, chile peppers, tomatoes, and pineapple chunks; stir to coat. Cook over medium heat until vegetables are crisp tender, about 5 minutes.
- Add tofu and stir to coat. Season with salt. Transfer to a covered dish for 10 minutes to let flavors mix, or serve immediately.

VEGETABLE TOFU CURRY
This one-pot vegetarian meal comes together quickly and leftovers keep for days. Creamy coconut milk is made up of fat and liquid from pressed coconut meat and this recipe delivers its full range of flavors. When you melt the solids from a can of coconut milk and keep cooking until the liquid evaporates, the oil eventually separates out and delivers toasty nuttiness. Here, onion - any kind - tenderizes in that tasty fat, and curry powder becomes more fragrant in it. Tofu soaks up the curry sauce while vegetables steam over the mixture, then everything gets stirred together. Experiment with whatever vegetables you have on hand, cooking them until tender.

Steps:
- If using broccoli, trim the ends of the stems and discard, then cut the stems off near the base of the florets. Cut off the thick peel around the stems, then cut the stems into 1/2-inch slices. Cut the broccoli crowns into small florets. Drain the tofu and cut into 1-inch cubes.
- Open the can of coconut milk and spoon off an inch or so of the hard white solid part into a large saucepan with a lid. (If the milk is all liquid, add a few spoonfuls.) Turn the heat to medium-high. When the solids melt, add the onion and broccoli stems, if using, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the onion is translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. The coconut milk liquid should have evaporated, so the onions should be sizzling in coconut oil and the milk solids should be brown and smell toasty. Scrape up any bits sticking to the bottom.
- Turn the heat down to medium-low, add the curry powder and stir until evenly mixed, about 10 seconds. Add the remaining coconut milk, stir and bring to a simmer. Add the tofu and spread the cubes in an even layer, then top with the broccoli florets or other vegetables, sprinkle with salt and cover with the lid. Cook until the vegetables are just tender but still bright green, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Gently stir so the vegetables are also coated in sauce. Taste and stir in more curry powder, salt and pepper if you'd like. Serve hot over rice or other grains or noodles, with hot sauce if you want.
COCONUT RED CURRY WITH TOFU
This simple weeknight red curry relies on jarred or canned red curry paste for flavor, which you can find at larger supermarkets and specialty markets. Transfer leftover canned curry paste to a jar, top it with a little oil and store in the refrigerator for up to a month. Or freeze for longer storage. Feel free to substitute other vegetables for the mushrooms and snow peas, though you might have to increase the cooking time slightly if using something dense like carrot or cubed winter squash.

Steps:
- Cut tofu into 1-inch slabs and place on paper towel-lined baking sheet. Cover with another layer of paper towels and place another baking sheet on top. Let sit for 20 minutes. Cut into 1-inch cubes.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add ginger, shallots, garlic, chile and cilantro stems, and sauté until tender, about 5 minutes. Add mushrooms and sauté until golden brown and tender, about 5 minutes. Season with salt. Stir in curry paste and cook 2 minutes. Pour in coconut milk, scraping up any curry paste with a wooden spoon. Add fish sauce, lime zest and juice. Add tofu cubes and snow peas. Simmer until the sauce thickens slightly and the snow peas are tender, 7 to 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Taste and add more salt and/or fish sauce if needed.
- Serve warm with brown rice and a scattering of torn basil and/or cilantro leaves on top.
