Ingredients
- 400g firm tofu, cubed
- 200g fresh spinach, washed and drained
- 400ml coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons red or green curry paste
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (optional, for sautéing curry paste)
- Salt, to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Curry Sauce: In a medium saucepan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat (if using). Add the curry paste and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Pour in the coconut milk and stir well to combine, bringing the mixture to a gentle simmer.
- Add Tofu and Spinach: Gently add the cubed tofu to the simmering sauce followed by the fresh spinach. Stir carefully to coat the tofu and wilt the spinach in the sauce. Simmer for 5-7 minutes until the flavors meld and the spinach is tender.
- Season and Serve: Taste the sauce and season with salt as needed. Serve the Swimming Rama Tofu hot with steamed rice or your choice of side.
Notes
- Use firm or extra-firm tofu to maintain texture during cooking.
- You can substitute fresh spinach with frozen spinach if fresh is unavailable; thaw and drain excess water before adding.
- Adjust the amount of curry paste according to your preferred spice level.
- For added depth, sauté minced garlic and shallots before adding the curry paste.
- This dish can be made gluten free by verifying the curry paste ingredients.
