Instructions

  1. Place 1/2 cup of grapeseed oil in a medium teflon pan or wok. Add tofu and fry until lightly browned. Transfer tofu to paper towels to drain. Discard oil when cool then wipe out the pan.
  2. Using the same pan, add 2 tbsp. of grapeseed oil and heat until shimmering. Add curry paste and fry, stirring constantly, until fragrant (about 2 minutes).
  3. Stir in the coconut cream and cook until the mixture breaks (the fat begins to separate out of the sauce).
