Rich and creamy, this Easy Harissa Tofu Curry is made with only 8 main ingredients. This dairy-free curry is delicious served with some fragrant yellow rice or Sri Lankan roti.

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 red onion
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 1 inch chunk of ginger
  • 1 package extra firm tofu
  • 2 tbsp harissa
  • 1 tbsp cayenne pepper
  • 1 1/2 cups of coconut milk
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley optional
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Remove tofu from the container it is in and drain out all the liquid. Then wrap the tofu in paper towels and/or kitchen towels and let it drain. Set it aside.
  • Peel and chop onion, ginger, and garlic.
  • Add olive oil to a pan and also add in the garlic, onion, ginger - make sure the flame/heat is set to medium heat.
  • Sauté for 9-10 minutes, stirring often so they don’t burn.
  • While onion, ginger, garlic are sauteing, unwrap the tofu and cut it into bite-sized cubes.
  • Push onion, ginger, garlic to the side of the pan and add cubed tofu into the middle of the pan. Let tofu cubes saute for about 3-5 minutes or until they are gently browned.
  • Using a spatula, flip the cubed tofu over and let the other sides brown for another 3-5 minutes.
  • Flip the cubed tofu one more time and let it saute for another 3-5 minutes.
  • Then add in the cayenne and harissa and stir until spices are evenly distributed.
  • Add in the coconut milk and stir well.
  • Cover and let simmer for 5 more minutes over low flame.
  • Remove cover and turn off the stove.
  • Stir in chopped parsley
