  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to taste)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup vegetable broth
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce

For the Vegetables and Tofu:

  • 1 block (14 ounces) firm tofu, cut into cubes
  • 2 cups mixed vegetables (bell peppers, carrots, broccoli, etc.), chopped
  • 1 cup green peas (frozen or fresh)
  • Fresh cilantro leaves for garnish (optional)
  • Lime wedges for serving (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Dry Curry Sauce:

    • Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat.
    • Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté until they become soft and translucent.
    • Stir in the curry powder, ground cumin, ground coriander, turmeric, and cayenne pepper. Cook for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

    • Add salt, pepper, and sugar, adjusting to your taste.
    • Let the sauce simmer for about 10-15 minutes until it thickens and intensifies in flavor.
  2. Cook the Tofu and Vegetables:

    • While the sauce is simmering, in a separate pan, heat a bit of oil and pan-fry the firm tofu cubes until they are golden brown on all sides. Remove and set aside.
    • In the same pan, add a bit more oil if necessary, and stir-fry the mixed vegetables until they are tender-crisp.
    • Add the green peas to the vegetables and cook for a few more minutes.
  3. Combine and Serve:

    • Add the pan-fried tofu to the simmering curry sauce and stir to coat the tofu cubes in the sauce.
