Ingredients

• Firm Tofu - 200 grams
• Broccoli - 100 grams
• Bell Pepper (Red) - 1 medium, diced
• Carrot - 1 medium, sliced
• Coconut Milk - 200 ml
• Curry Powder - 1 tablespoon
• Soy Sauce - 1 tablespoon
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Ginger - 1 teaspoon, grated
• Vegetable Oil - 2 tablespoons
• Green Onions - 2, chopped
• Salt - to taste

Steps

1. Press the tofu to remove excess moisture, then cut it into cubes.
2. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a pan over medium heat and add the tofu cubes. Cook until golden brown on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and set aside.
3. In the same pan, add another tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add minced garlic and grated ginger, sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
4. Add the sliced carrot, diced bell pepper, and broccoli florets to the pan. Stir-fry for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
5. Sprinkle the curry powder over the vegetables, stirring to coat evenly. Cook for another minute.
6. Pour in the coconut milk and soy sauce, stirring to combine. Bring to a gentle simmer.
7. Return the browned tofu to the pan, and let everything simmer together for another 5-10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
8. Serve hot, garnished with chopped green onions.
