CURRIED TOFU SALAD

Steps:

• To press liquid out of tofu: place in a flat-bottomed sieve, put a plate on top and weight it down w/ something heavy-- after about an hour you'll probably have about 1/4- 1/2 cup of liquid pressed out.
• Chop tofu, not too small-- I use an wire egg slicer.
• Combine tofu, celery& onion.
• Add mayo, curry, lemon juice, and salt&pepper.
• Gently mix.
• Can use immediately but will be more flavorful if left in refridge for several hours to overnight.
• Great as a sandwich filling (similar to egg salad) or as a dip for vege crudites.
• Enjoy!

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.
