Coconut Lime Tofu
  1. If using silken-firm tofu, wrap the block between kitchen towels and place a small saucepan on top. Let sit for 10-15 minutes to drain excess water, then pat dry with clean kitchen towels and slice.

  2. Optionally coat tofu slices lightly in corn flour for a crispier texture.

  3. Gently heat 1-2 tbsp sesame oil in a pan and pan-fry tofu slices until golden brown on both sides, flipping halfway through.

  4. Remove tofu and set aside.

  5. In the same pan, add 1 tbsp sesame oil, sliced onion, minced garlic, grated ginger, red curry paste, and sriracha. Stir together until fragrant.

  6. Add 250-300 ml coconut milk and stir.

  7. Add brown sugar, light soy sauce, and juice of ½ - 1 lemon or lime. Adjust citrus to taste.

  8. Once simmering, add the cooked tofu back to the pan.

  9. Garnish with scallions and sesame seeds.

  10. Serve over rice and enjoy.
