Thai Coconut Green Curry With Tofu
- 1 can chicken broth
- 1 can light coconut milk
- 3 tablespoons green curry paste
- 1 can bamboo shoots
- 1/2 red onion small, chopped
- 1 cup asparagus chopped
- 1 head broccoli
- 3 teaspoons splenda or sugar using sugar will change nutritional co
- 1 teaspoon canola oil
- 1/2 package extra firm tofu
- I prefer to steam my broccoli and asparagus separate from my curry mixture and add at the end.
- Now heat a pan over medium-high heat.
- Add 3 T of the coconut milk to the pan and the green curry paste. Stir while it heats until the mix bubbles.
- Add the onion and saute for two to three minutes until it begins to become translucent. If you need more liquid go ahead and add a little more coconut milk.
- Once onion is cooked, add the stock and the remainder of the coconut milk. Let simmer and taste.
- Add a teaspoon at a time sugar or Splenda and taste. I used three teaspoons of Splenda this time but it varies depending on the brand of coconut milk. The key is to add enough to bring out the coconut milk flavor.
- Also, add a dash of salt helps to balance the flavor if needed as it helps to bring the sweetness out as well. This time I used a pinch, again it depends on your stock.
- Once you have the sweetness balanced to your liking add your steamed broccoli, asparagus and the bamboo shoots.
- Turn down to warm/low and cover.
- Now pan fry your tofu. To do this I like to cut my tofu into rectangles so I can turn and brown each side. Heat the canola oil over medium high and add tofu. Cook until light brown.
- To serve, put rice in a bowl if you wish then add tofu and curry mix. I enjoy this with or without rice.
