How to make it

  1. 1

    Let's start by getting our tofu ready. If you have extra-firm tofu, a quick press between some paper towels for a few minutes will help it soak up all those yummy flavors. Then, cut it into bite sized cubes.

  2. 2

    Next, chop your red bell peppers into nice strips or squares, whatever you prefer. They add such beautiful color and a little sweetness.

  3. 3

    Grab a medium pot or a deep skillet. Over medium heat, add your red curry paste and let it warm up for just a minute or two. It really wakes up all those lovely spices.

  4. 4

    Pour in your can of full-fat coconut milk and give it a good stir, making sure the curry paste dissolves beautifully. Bring it to a gentle simmer.

  5. 5

    Now, carefully add your tofu cubes and the chopped bell peppers to the simmering sauce. Let it cook for about 10 to 15 minutes, until the peppers are tender-crisp and the tofu has absorbed some of that fantastic flavor. Give it a taste, and add a little salt and pepper if you like.

  6. 6

    Finally, squeeze in the fresh juice from your lime right before serving. That zesty burst of citrus truly brightens up the whole dish. Enjoy this delicious, easy meal over rice or noodles!
