Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add cubed tofu and cook, turning occasionally, until golden and crispy on all sides, about 6-8 minutes. Remove tofu from skillet and set aside.

  2. 2

    In the same skillet, add remaining oil. Sauté onion for 2-3 minutes until softened. Add garlic and ginger and cook for another 1 minute.

  3. 3

    Stir in carrot, bell pepper, and potatoes. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  4. 4

    Sprinkle in curry powder, cumin, smoked paprika, cayenne, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to coat the vegetables with spices.

  5. 5

    Pour in coconut milk and vegetable broth. Add soy sauce and brown sugar. Stir to combine.

  6. 6

    Bring to a gentle simmer. Cover and cook for 15 minutes, or until potatoes are tender.

  7. 7

    Add crispy tofu and peas. Stir and cook uncovered for 3-5 minutes, letting the flavors meld and the peas heat through.

  8. 8

    Squeeze in lemon juice and mix well. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.

  9. 9

    Garnish with fresh cilantro. Serve hot with rice or naan.
