This is a deliciously creamy curry that is naturally vegan but provides a good source of protein through tofu. It is easy to adapt and add different vegetables as you please.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups of frozen peas
  • 1 tin of coconut milk
  • 6 ounces of firm tofu
  • 2 white onions
  • 4 cloves of garlic
  • 1-inch cube of ginger
  • 5 medium tomatoes
  • 1 teaspoon of cumin
  • 1 teaspoon of garam masala
  • ½ teaspoon of chili powder
  • 4 cups of water
  • 1 tablespoon of cooking oil

Instructions:

  1. Chop up the onions into crescent shapes and fry in ½ tbsp of oil on medium heat until lightly brown. Chop up the garlic and ginger into small pieces, and fry in a pan with cumin, garam masala, and chili powder.
  2. Chop up the tomatoes and add to the pan. Add the water and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and blend until smooth.
  3. Cut up the tofu into small chunks and fry with the remainder of the oil until brown on each side.
  4. Add peas to your curry sauce and heat until cooked. Then add coconut milk and stir, before adding your tofu.
  5. Serve with rice or naan bread and add salt to taste.
