Impress your friends and family with this delicious vegan curry! The vegetables seriously melt in your mouth, making you want to come back for seconds. It sounds like a complicated recipe due to the amount of ingredients, but it's basically just a ton of veggies, spices, and coconut milk.

INGREDIENTS: - 1/2 block (8 oz) of extra firm tofu, pressed - 1 tbsp vegan butter - 1/2 white onion - 2 cups baby bella mushrooms - 1/2 red bell pepper - 1/3 head of cauliflower - 30 oz of light coconut milk - 2-3 tbsp curry powder - 1 tsp ginger powder - 1 tsp turmeric - 1 tsp garlic powder - 1 tsp ground coriander - 1 tsp fresh lemon juice - Cilantro for topping - Sriracha for topping - White rice, cooked
PREPARATION: - Start with the tofu. First, press your tofu to remove as much liquid as possible. Wrap in a kitchen towel, then place a weight on top (like a dinner plate). Let it sit for about 5 minutes. - Meanwhile, prep your veggies by chopping everything into bite-size pieces.
COOK: - Heat a large sauce pan on medium heat. - Add the onion and vegan butter to the hot pan. - Cook for 3-4 minutes to soften the onion. - Add in the rest of your veggies: mushrooms, pepper, cauliflower. - cook for 4-5 minutes or until the cauliflower begins to soften. - Add in the coconut milk and spices, and bring to a low boil.
SIMMER: - As soon as it reaches a low boil, reduce the heat, then cover and simmer (stirring occasionally) for about 10-15 minutes or until the cauliflower is very soft. - Remove from heat and let it cool for a few minutes. - Taste and add any additional spices if needed.
SERVE: - Serve over a bed of white rice and top with some fresh cilantro. Top with some sriracha if you'd like to add some spice.
TIPS & TRICKS: - Store in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to 7 days. - I'd recommend storing the rice and curry separately as the rice will absorb the liquid in the curry. - The curry will tend to thicken as it sits in the fridge. Add a splash of coconut milk when you re-heat it to get it back to a thinner consistency if desired.
