Cooking Steps
ā¢ In a medium saucepan, bring the water to the boil. Add jasmine rice, stir, cover with a lid and reduce heat to low. ā¢ Cook for 12 minutes, then remove pan from heat. ā¢ Keep covered until rice is tender and all water is absorbed, 10-15 minutes.
TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam, so don't peek!
ā¢ Meanwhile, cut firm tofu (see ingredients) into 2cm cubes. ā¢ Thinly slice carrot into rounds. Drain and roughly chop bamboo shoots. Trim and halve green beans. Finely chop garlic.
ā¢ In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. ā¢ Cook firm tofu, turning occasionally, until golden, 4-6 minutes. ā¢ Transfer to a plate.
ā¢ Return frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook carrot and green beans, tossing, until softened, 5-6 minutes. ā¢ Add garlic, gingerlemongrass paste, bamboo shoots and Southeast Asian spice blend. Cook until fragrant, 1 minute.
ā¢ Stir in coconut milk, the soy sauce, the brown sugar and a dash of water. Simmer until sauce is slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes. ā¢ Return tofu to pan. Stir until heated through, then remove pan from heat.
ā¢ Roughly chop coriander. ā¢ Divide jasmine rice between bowls. Top with tofu and veggie curry. ā¢ Top with coriander to serve. Enjoy!

Review summary
Updated on Feb 2026- Flavour:Ā Many enjoyed the curry sauce, but some found the dish bland. Adding extra spices or seasoning the tofu before cooking could boost flavour.
- Ease of prep:Ā Quick and easy to make, though some noted the tofu took longer to crisp up than expected.
- Suggestions:Ā Try using coconut rice for extra flavour. Dice the tofu smaller or slice it for easier, more even cooking.
- Leftovers:Ā Leftovers reheated well for lunch the next day, with flavours developing nicely.
- Portions:Ā Several found the serving size small, with some suggesting it's better suited for three servings rather than four.
