Instructions

  1. 1Press the excess water from the 1 block of Firm Tofu. Cut the tofu into about 2.5 cm cubes.

  3. 3Pour in the 2 cans of Coconut milk and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Stir in the 2 tablespoons of Coconut aminos, 1 tablespoon of Maple syrup, and 1 tablespoon of Lime Juice.
  4. 4Add the 1 cup of Pineapple chunks, the red and green Bell Peppers (cut into bite-sized pieces), and the 1 can of Bamboo Shoots to the pot. Simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
  5. 5Gently stir the reserved fried tofu cubes into the curry. Heat through for 1-2 minutes.
