Curried Tofu:
Prepare firm or extra firm tofu:
Set the tofu on a paper towel, on a plate. Put something heavy on top of the tofu, like a can of tomatoes in a bowl. Let the tofu drain for 20-30 minutes. Then, cut the tofu into desirably-sized pieces. Place the chunks into the marinade and let soak for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
Marinade:
2 Tbls Peanut Butter
2 Tbls Braggs Aminos (could be soy sauce or tamari)
1 Cup Coconut Milk
2-3 tsp curry powder
2 cloves chopped garlic
2 tsp grated fresh turmeric (I've really been loving this, but you could skip it since the curry powder probably has ground turmeric in it!)
Bake the tofu on a parchment lined baking sheet for about 40 minutes, turning it every 10 minutes.
