Ingredients

  • 1 lb Firm Tofu
  • 1 can Coconut Milk
  • 1 medium Red Bell Pepper
  • 2 cups Broccoli Florets
  • 1 cup Green Beans
  • 2 tablespoons Red Curry Paste
  • 1 tablespoon Fish Sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Ginger
  • 2 cloves Garlic
  • 1 tablespoon Lime Juice
  • 1 teaspoon Swerve Sweetener
  • 1 tablespoon Oil
  • 1/4 cup Cilantro

Instructions

  1. 1Place the 1 lb of Firm Tofu on a clean surface and press firmly to remove as much excess water as possible. Once pressed, cut the 1 lb of Firm Tofu into 1-inch cubes.
  2. 2Heat the 1 tablespoon of Oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium heat (350°F / 175°C).
  3. 3Add the 2 tablespoons of Red Curry Paste, 1 teaspoon of Ginger, and 2 cloves of Garlic to the pot. Stir constantly for 1 minute, until the mixture is fragrant and lightly browned.
  4. 4Pour in the 1 can of Coconut Milk and add the 1 tablespoon of Fish Sauce. Stir well and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, which is when small bubbles appear around the edges of the pot.
  5. 5Add the cubed 1 lb of Firm Tofu, the 1 medium Red Bell Pepper (cut into bite-sized pieces), the 2 cups of Broccoli Florets, and the 1 cup of Green Beans to the pot. Stir everything together, reduce the heat to medium-low (300°F / 150°C), and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender but still have a slight crispness when poked with a fork.
  6. 6Remove the pot from the heat. Stir in the 1 tablespoon of Lime Juice and the 1 teaspoon of Swerve Sweetener until fully combined.
  7. 7Serve the Keto Vietnamese Coconut Curry hot, garnished with the 1/4 cup of fresh Cilantro.
