Fruited Tofu Curry Salad Recipes

CURRIED CHICKEN SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the chicken breasts on a sheet pan and rub the skin with olive oil. Sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. Roast for 35 to 40 minutes, until the chicken is just cooked. Set aside until cool enough to handle. Remove the meat from the bones, discard the skin, and dice the chicken into large bite-size pieces.
• For the dressing, combine the mayonnaise, wine, chutney, curry powder, and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Process until smooth.
• Combine the chicken with enough dressing to moisten well. Add the celery, scallions, and raisins, and mix well. Refrigerate for a few hours to allow the flavors to blend. Add the cashews and serve at room temperature.

TOFU CURRY

Steps:

• Heat 1/2 tbsp of the oil in a large, wide, non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat. Fry the tofu with a pinch of salt for 5 mins, turning every couple of minutes until golden brown. Remove to a plate using a slotted spoon.
• Add the remaining oil to the pan, then fry half the onions for 5 mins, stirring often until golden brown. Add the ginger and garlic paste, stir-frying for a minute, then add the turmeric and cook for another 30 seconds to release the flavour.
• Stir in the coconut milk, then return the tofu to the pan along with the lime juice and 100ml water, and simmer for 5 mins. Stir in the spinach and the coriander, and cook for 1 min until wilted, then season.
• Serve the curry in bowls topped with the coriander leaves and the remaining onion, the lime wedges for squeezing over, and the chapatis on the side.
