Curried Tofu with Tomatoes
- 2 cups chopped onions
- 1 large red bell pepper, chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 4 garlic cloves, minced or pressed
- 1 1/2 tablespoons grated peeled ginger root
- 2 tablespoons Curry Powder (page 238) or commercial curry powder or garam masala
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 cake firm tofu (about 16 ounces), cut into 1/2-inch cubes
- 1 28-ounce can of diced tomatoes
- Black pepper or hot sauce
- In a large saucepan with a lid, cook the onions, peppers, and salt in the oil on medium-high heat until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add the garlic, ginger, Curry Powder, cinnamon, and tofu.
- Cover and cook on medium-low heat, stirring frequently, for 5 minutes.
- Add the tomatoes, cover, and simmer for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to develop.
- Occasionally stir gently.
- Add black pepper or hot sauce to taste.
- Serve at the table with pappadams and toasted cashews, chopped cilantro, and plain yogurt.
- This dish matches well with Coconut Rice (page 182) or Yellow Rice (page 179).
- Remember to start cooking the rice before you make the curry.
- If youd like dessert, Caramel Custard (page 273) is a nice choice.
