Description

A comforting dish with tofu in a rich, spicy coconut sauce that is both satisfying and easy to make.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 14 oz firm tofu
  • 1 can (13.5 oz) coconut milk
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons sriracha (or to taste)

  • 1 tablespoon ginger, minced
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chopped cilantro for garnish

Instructions

  2. In a skillet over medium-high heat, heat the olive oil and sauté the tofu until golden brown on all sides, about 8-10 minutes.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together coconut milk, soy sauce, sriracha, minced garlic, ginger, lime juice, salt, and pepper.
  4. Pour the coconut sauce over the tofu and let it simmer for about 5 minutes.
  5. Serve the tofu over warm cooked rice, garnished with chopped cilantro.

Notes
