Techniques
  • 3 tbsp roasted peanuts
  • 1 whole red onion
  • 150 g broccoli
Peel the red onion and cut in half, then quarters. Chop the broccoli into bite-sized pieces, slicing each floret halfway and pulling apart.
  • ½ whole red bell pepper
  • 6 spears baby corn
Chop the red bell pepper into bite-sized pieces and halve the baby corn.
  • 120 g smoked tofu
  • avocado oil
Cut the smoked tofu into bite-sized cubes. Put the vegetables and tofu in a large mixing bowl, drizzle with avocado oil and toss.
Spread on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and bake 15 minutes.
Bought curry paste and tamarind paste
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil
  • 2 tbsp red curry paste
Heat a saute pan over medium heat with the coconut oil; fry the red curry paste about a minute, cooking it down to intensify the flavor until the oil separates.
Frying the curry paste and building the sauce
  • ¼ cup water
  • 1 tbsp tamarind paste
  • 3 tbsp smooth and unsweetened peanut butter
  • 1½ tbsp soy sauce
  • ½ tsp dark soy sauce
Add the water and stir; add the tamarind paste, peanut butter, soy sauce, dark soy sauce and maple syrup and stir.
  • 1½ tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 can canned coconut milk
Add the coconut milk, stir, turn the heat up and bring to a boil.
Turn to medium low, stir and simmer gently about 5 minutes; it thickens slightly and the flavor intensifies.
Add the roasted vegetables, turn back to medium, stir and simmer another minute or two.
Crush roasted peanuts in a pestle and mortar.
Crushed peanut garnish and plating
  • fresh lime juice
  • freshly chopped cilantro
Plate generously, with freshly steamed rice; squeeze over lime juice and top with the crushed peanuts and chopped cilantro.
