Pumpkin lime tofu with quinoa curry

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Vegetarian & Vegan Main Courses
The meeting of refreshing lime and earthy curry in this dish is a real flavour bomb. The sweetness of the pumpkin bridges the sour citrus and spicy seasonings. Quinoa, as a 'super side', is not only nutritious but absorbs the sauce wonderfully without getting soggy.

Instructions

1 ✓

Dice the pumpkin, toss with a little oil and roast at 200°C for 20 minutes until soft and slightly brown.

Tip: Roasting brings out the pumpkin's sweetness, which will balance the lime's acidity.
2 ✓

Meanwhile, rinse the quinoa, and cook in the water with a pinch of salt until soft, approx. 15 minutes.

Tip: If the water has boiled away and the grains have little 'tails', it's done. Leave to rest under a lid.
3 ✓

Dice the tofu, pat off moisture, and fry in hot coconut oil until golden brown.

Tip: Coconut oil withstands heat well and adds a nice base flavour to the tofu.
4 ✓

Sprinkle the curry powder into the tofu pan and fry for 30 seconds.

Tip: Careful, don't burn the spice, just let it become fragrant!
5 ✓

Pour in the coconut milk, add the lime juice and salt. Bring to a boil, then stir in the roasted pumpkin.

Tip: Add the lime juice gradually, tasting so it's pleasantly tart.
6 ✓

Serve piled onto the quinoa, sprinkled with fresh coriander.

Tip: Serve immediately while the tofu is crunchy and the sauce is hot.

Recipe FAQ

Can I use lemon instead of lime?
Although similar in acidity, the lime's distinctive, more floral aroma fits better with coconut milk and curry.
What do I do if the quinoa is bitter?
This is because you didn't rinse it enough before cooking. The saponin layer covering the seeds causes bitterness.
