Steps:
- For the cashew sauce: Add the soaked, rinsed & drained cashews, lemon juice, salt, water, and red curry paste into your blender. Blend until smooth.
- For the crispy tofu: Cut the tofu in cubes. Add the all-purpose flour, curry powder, and salt in a bowl. Add the tofu to the bowl and toss carefully until all the tofu cubes are coated. Bring a large pan with oil to high heat, toss in the tofu. Let it cook on each side until browned and crispy. Remove the tofu from the pan and set aside.
- In the large pan over medium to high heat, cook the cubed onion until soft, then remove it from the pan and set aside.
- Then add the broccoli and carrot slices into the pan, add about 1/4 cup of water and let the veggies cook until tender.
- Now it's time to combine everything. Add the onions back into the pan to the broccoli and carrots. Reduce the heat and pour in the cashew sauce, if it thickens up too much you can always add more water to thin it out. Heat it up until everything is warm. Add salt to taste and the lastly, the crispy tofu.
- Serve the Tofu Cashew Curry with basmati rice and enjoy!

Steps:
- Wrap tofu in 2 to 3 layers of paper towels and place on a plate. Place a second plate on top to encourage fluid out of the tofu. Let sit until paper towels are saturated, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking tray.
- Discard wet paper towels and cube tofu. Place on the prepared baking tray.
- Bake in the preheated oven until adequately dry, about 20 minutes.
- While the tofu is baking, drain pineapple chunks, reserving juice.
- Combine coconut milk, liquid aminos, ginger, curry paste, chili powder, curry powder, and garlic in a large skillet over medium heat. Add reserved pineapple juice and bring to a boil. Reduce temperature to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes.
- Mix cornstarch and water together in a small bowl; add to the coconut milk mixture and whisk until slightly thickened.
- Stir in basil and jalapeno; cook for 1 minute. Add bok choy, spinach, green onions, mushrooms, chile peppers, tomatoes, and pineapple chunks; stir to coat. Cook over medium heat until vegetables are crisp tender, about 5 minutes.
- Add tofu and stir to coat. Season with salt. Transfer to a covered dish for 10 minutes to let flavors mix, or serve immediately.

COCONUT CHICKEN CURRY WITH CASHEWS
This Sri Lankan curry goes together fairly quickly despite the long list of ingredients. I used skinless, boneless thigh meat, because it always stays moist and can absorb a lot of flavor from a short marinade in ginger, garlic and spices. To intensify the taste, the cashews and coconut are used two ways. First, a handful of each is ground to a powder and added to the sauce. Then after simmering for 30 minutes or so, the curry is finished with a generous cup of thick coconut milk and garnished with toasted cashews. I also added, because I like it and thought it would harmonize nicely, a totally nontropical vegetable, parsnip - optional, but delicious.

Steps:
- Season chicken generously with salt and pepper and put it in a mixing bowl. Add ginger and garlic and massage into meat. In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast cloves, fennel, cardamom, allspice, cumin and coriander until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Grind the toasted spices to a fine powder in an electric spice mill and add to chicken. Add turmeric, cayenne and lemon juice and mix well. Let marinate at room temperature for at least 15 minutes, or refrigerate up to 1 hour.
- Heat oven to 375 degrees. Put cashews on a baking sheet and roast until lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove and set aside to cool. Spread the shredded coconut on the baking sheet and toast until lightly browned, about 5 minutes, then let cool. Grind the coconut with 1/4 cup cashews in a spice mill or small food processor to make a rough powder. Reserve 1/2 cup roasted cashews for garnish.
- Bring a small saucepan of lightly salted water to a simmer, then add parsnips and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and cool.
- In a wide heavy-bottomed pot, heat ghee over medium-high heat. Add cooked parsnips, if using, and sauté until lightly browned. Remove and reserve. Add chicken pieces to the pot, stirring occasionally until lightly browned, about 5 minutes, then remove and set aside. Add onions and cook until softened, about 5 minutes more. Add tomato paste and let it sizzle with onions for a minute or two. Add broth and bring to a brisk simmer, stirring with a wooden spoon and scraping up any caramelized bits from the pot. Add cinnamon stick, chicken and the ground coconut and cashew mixture. Adjust heat to a gentle simmer, cover and cook for about 30 minutes, until chicken is tender. Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if necessary.
- To finish the dish, stir in coconut milk and add reserved parsnips. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, until parsnips are heated through and the sauce has thickened slightly. Transfer to a serving bowl and sprinkle with reserved cashews. Garnish with mint and cilantro sprigs, if using.

CRISPY TOFU WITH CASHEWS AND BLISTERED SNAP PEAS
A ginger and coconut milk reduction can coat pretty much anything that browns nicely on its own. Here, it's pieces of pan-seared tofu, but small morsels of chicken and pork will work just as well. The soy and the teaspoons of molasses give the sauce a little caramelization, and a little shine and gloss. For a fresh side, add some blistered snap peas, tossed with sliced scallions, a little mint and a splash of rice vinegar. Snow peas, green beans, broccoli or asparagus? If it's fresh and green, it'll work just fine.

Steps:
- Slice the tofu in half horizontally, and leave on paper towels to dry any excess liquid.
- In a medium skillet or cast-iron pan, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high until it shimmers. Season both sides of the tofu with salt and black pepper, place in the pan and sear without moving until tofu is browned and golden on both sides, turning once halfway through, about 8 minutes total. Move the tofu to a plate.
- Add 1 tablespoon oil to the pan, and add the snap peas. Cook, stirring occasionally, until blistered and just tender, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and move to a bowl.
- Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, add the ginger and garlic, and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Pour in the coconut milk, soy sauce and molasses. Simmer, stirring frequently until the sauce reduces and its color deepens to a dark brown, about 6 to 8 minutes. It should coat a spoon without running right off. Stir in the cashews, break the tofu into 1-inch pieces and toss in the pan to coat with sauce. Remove from heat, and taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary.
- Toss the snap peas with the rice vinegar, scallions, mint and red-pepper flakes, if using. Divide among plates, along with the tofu and cashews. Serve with rice or any steamed grain.
COCONUT RED CURRY WITH TOFU
This simple weeknight red curry relies on jarred or canned red curry paste for flavor, which you can find at larger supermarkets and specialty markets. Transfer leftover canned curry paste to a jar, top it with a little oil and store in the refrigerator for up to a month. Or freeze for longer storage. Feel free to substitute other vegetables for the mushrooms and snow peas, though you might have to increase the cooking time slightly if using something dense like carrot or cubed winter squash.
