Tofu As A Fantastic Source of Protein

You know me, I love tofu! We are always looking for fun an exciting ways to add tofu into our dishes. For us, as vegetarians, it is a great source of protein.

If you are a meat-eater, that is perfectly fine! Consider this an option for Meatless Mondays!

Curry Tofu with Broccoli and Rice

As you know, we love tofu recipe. We are always looking for fun ways to cook our tofu. Whether its Crispy Air Fryer Tofu, Balsamic Tofu and Mushrooms or Tofu Scramble Burritos, we got you covered.

We have even talked about the benefits of tofu and simple ways to cook tofu!

How to Make Curry Tofu

We used our EZ Tofu Press to press the tofu before frying it up. We fried the tofu to a beautiful golden brown.

Next up, we need to make our sauce!

I used curry paste for this recipe instead of curry powder. You can adjust the amount per your tastebuds. The amount is this recipe is pretty tame!

Ingredients

In the recipe we used:

  • onion
  • carrots
  • fresh ginger
  • broccoli

I diced the onions and carrots up small and cut the broccoli into small florets.

This meal cooks up pretty quick, the sauce does not take long at all to make!

The longest part is probably frying up the onions and carrots until they are soft! The sauce is quite beautiful!

The addition of fresh basil on top of the sauce not only brightens the dish but elevates the flavor profile of this dish! I LOVE using fresh herbs when cooking!

I bet you are starting to get hungry now! I know that I am!

If you’ve spent some time following our little blog and our social media channels, you know that our household loves our EZ Tofu Press!

You’ve seen mine in action a lot on our Facebook and Instagram channels!

Every time I talk about the EZ Tofu Press, I share that it is something I didn’t know that I needed. Now that I have one, I will never be without!

This device gets so much liquid from my tofu which allows it to cook up better!
