Instructions

Fry the Tofu
1

a) Boil a half-full kettle.

b) While it boils, heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan on medium-high heat.

c) Drain the tofu and chop into 2cm cubes. Pat dry with kitchen paper.

c) Once hot, fry the tofu until slightly crispy, 8-10 mins. Turn frequently to ensure it doesn't burn. Season with salt and pepper.

Prep Time
2

a) While the tofu cooks, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

b) Zest and halve the lime (see ingredients for amount).

Cook the Rice
3

a) Once the water has boiled, pour into a large saucepan with 1/4 tsp salt on high heat.

b) Add the rice and cook for 10-12 mins.

c) Once cooked, drain in a sieve and pop back into the pan. Cover with a lid and leave to the side until ready to serve.

Simmer and Spice
4

a) Once the tofu is cooked, stir in the garlic, ginger puree and tomato puree. Cook for 1 min.

b) Pour in the coconut milk, veg stock paste, sugar and water for the sauce (see pantry for both amounts), then stir together.

c) Bring to the boil, then lower the heat and simmer until the sauce has thickened, 4-5 mins.

Add the Spinach
5

a) Once thickened, stir the spinach into the stew a handful at a time until wilted and piping hot, 1-2 mins.

b) Remove from the heat, squeeze in some of the lime juice and stir in the soy sauce.

c) Taste and add more lime juice if needed and add a splash more water if it's a bit too thick.

Serve
6

a) Share the rice between your bowls and spoon the tofu stew on top.

b) Finish with a sprinkling of lime zest.

Enjoy!
