Tofu Red Curry With Rice Noodles Recipes

Steps:

• Cook the noodles as the label directs. Drain and set aside.
• Meanwhile, heat a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the curry paste and cook, stirring constantly, until it turns deep red, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Stir in the coconut milk, ginger and brown sugar. Increase the heat to high and bring to a vigorous simmer. Stir in the squash, haricots verts and bell pepper. Cover, reduce the heat to medium and cook until the squash is just tender and the beans and bell pepper are crisp-tender, about 10 minutes.
• Stir in the fish sauce and season with salt. Stir in the tofu and cook, uncovered, until warmed through, about 1 minute. Divide the noodles and curry mixture among bowls. Top with basil and serve with lime wedges.

Steps:

• Cut tofu into 1-inch slabs and place on paper towel-lined baking sheet. Cover with another layer of paper towels and place another baking sheet on top. Let sit for 20 minutes. Cut into 1-inch cubes.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add ginger, shallots, garlic, chile and cilantro stems, and sauté until tender, about 5 minutes. Add mushrooms and sauté until golden brown and tender, about 5 minutes. Season with salt. Stir in curry paste and cook 2 minutes. Pour in coconut milk, scraping up any curry paste with a wooden spoon. Add fish sauce, lime zest and juice. Add tofu cubes and snow peas. Simmer until the sauce thickens slightly and the snow peas are tender, 7 to 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Taste and add more salt and/or fish sauce if needed.
• Serve warm with brown rice and a scattering of torn basil and/or cilantro leaves on top.
