We've got some blood pressure problems in the family, so we're taking dietary measures.
Ingredients
- 4 tsp canola oil, divided
- 1 14-ounce package extra-firm tofu, rinsed, patted dry and cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 lbs sweet potato, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 14-ounce can lite coconut milk
- ½ c vegetable broth or reduced-sodium chicken broth
- 1-2 teaspoons red Thai curry paste
- ½ lbs green beans, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 2 tsp lime juice
- ½ tsp salt
- 1/3 c chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 lime, quartered
Instructions
Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add tofu and cook, stirring every 2 or 3 minutes, until browned, 6 to 8 minutes total. Transfer to a plate.
Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons oil over medium-high heat. Add sweet potato and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Add coconut milk, broth and curry paste to taste. Bring to a boil; reduce to a simmer and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until the sweet potato is just tender, about 4 minutes. Add the tofu, green beans and brown sugar; return to a simmer and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until the green beans are tender-crisp, 2 to 4 minutes. Stir in lime juice and salt. Sprinkle with cilantro and serve with lime wedges.
