Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp oil
  • 200 g (~ 7 oz) firm tofu, drained
  • 1 medium onion, cut into wedges
  • 4 medium mushrooms, sliced
  • 200 g (~ 2 cups) mixed stir fry vegetables
  • 80 g (~ 1/4 cup) frozen peas
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp medium curry powder
  • 1 tbsp plain flour
  • 500 ml (~ 2 cups) vegetable stock
  • Fresh coriander (cilantro), to serve (optional)

Instructions

  • Cut the tofu into pieces, and press it for a few minutes inside a clean tea towel or between some kitchen paper.
  • Heat the oil in a large frying pan or wok, and add the pieces of tofu. Cook over a medium-high heat for a few minutes each side, until nicely browned. Add all the vegetables (onion to peas), and cook for a further 5 minutes, until partially cooked. Add the garlic, and cook for 2 more minutes.
  • Add the curry powder and flour, mix well to coat, and then add the vegetable stock. Allow to simmer gently until cooked to your liking - the sauce will thicken up as it simmers, so just leave it as long as you like (maybe another 5 minutes). Serve topped with some fresh coriander if desired.
