Pf Chang'S Coconut Curry Vegetables


1. Drain the tofu, cube and fry in 1 tbsp canola oil until brown. Set aside. (See this thread: http://www.recipezaar.com/bb/viewtopic.zsp?t=170177) I recommend freezing the tofu first to firm up the texture.

2. Separately blanch or steam the broccoli, carrots and sugar snap peas until tender-crisp in plain boiling water.

3. Heat a wok or wide skillet over high heat until hot. Add 1 tbsp canola oil, swirl to glaze the pan, then add the onions and bell pepper. Stir-fry until tender-crisp, 3-4 minutes. Add the mushrooms and stir until hot, a few minutes more. Add the blanched vegetables and and tofu. Toss to mix.

4. Combine the coconut-curry sauce ingredients. Taste and adjust the sugar to your liking.

5. Add the sauce to the pan with the veggies. Bring to a simmer, tossing to combine.

6. Dissolve the cornstarch in 1 1/2 tbsp of water and add to pan. Stir until the sauce turns glossy, about 10 seconds (a bit longer if you're doubling the sauce).

7. Add the peanuts.

8. Serve with rice, noodles, or a warm loaf of bread.

9. Use a milder or hotter curry powder to vary the spice.

10. For a really saucy dish to serve over rice or noodles, double the sauce ingredients and the cornstarch mixture.
