Spicy Tofu with Creamy Coconut Sauce
Instructions
Prep:10minCook:20min
For this spicy tofu recipe, I am using a very pressed style of tofu that is sometimes called “firm tofu” or “super firm tofu,” depending on the tofu maker. Read note 1 for more information. If you are using “extra-firm tofu,” read to note 2 for directions on how to prepare the tofu. If you opened a can of coconut milk for this recipe, here are some ideas on what to do with leftover coconut milk.

I can't even believe how good that was. I already want to make more of the sauce so I can add it to other things.
