    These red curry tofu bowls are the BEST vegan dinner! The tofu is browned before being tossed in a coconut-based red curry sauce. The brussels sprouts are roasted until crispy. Everything is served over rice with chopped cilantro and lime wedges. It is an easy weeknight dinner you will want to keep on the rotation.

    How to Make Crispy Brussels Sprouts

    Crispy brussels sprouts are one of my favorite veggies! They are so simple, easy and delicious. No need to over-season them either. Just cut whole brussels sprouts in half and toss with some oil, salt & pepper.

    Transfer them to a parchment-lined baking sheet and make sure they are all face down. Place them in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes. I like mine extra crispy, so I go the full 15 minutes.

    How to Make Red Curry Tofu

    This red curry tofu is freaking delicious! Extra firm tofu is pressed and cubed then tossed with a little soy sauce and corn starch. Add some oil to a skillet (no need for a lot of oil, just enough to coat the bottom of the skillet) and cook the tofu until browned.

    While the tofu is browning, make the red curry sauce. Here is what you need:

    • coconut milk - from a can
    • red curry paste
    • sesame oil
    • soy sauce
    • peanut butter - I like to use unsalted

    Add everything to a small sauce pan and heat until smooth and combined. Pour the sauce over the browned tofu and toss until the tofu is coated and the sauce is hot & bubbly.

    How to Serve

    When it comes to serving this tofu, I like to add some hot rice to each bowl and top it with the crispy brussels sprouts, the tofu, cilantro and sesame seeds. Add some lime wedges to the side of each bowl and dig in.

    The tofu is crispy & saucy. The sprouts are charred & delicious. It is the perfect combo of sweet, spicy, crunchy & creamy.
