- Transfer the tofu, onions, and garlic to a bowl, leaving some oil behind.

- Add the thyme, cinnamon, coriander and hot pepper and stir well.
- Blend the corn (reserving 1 tbsp for later) with the coconut milk in a blender or food processor.
- Add to the pan and simmer until reduced.

- Also add the water chestnuts now if you'd like.
- Serve hot, garnished with coriander and over a bed of white rice if you prefer.
