Thai red curry paste + 1/3 c. cashews + 1 c. canned coconut milk + 4 tsp. fish sauce + 2 tsp. sugar + 1/4 tsp. salt What to do:
1. Set tofu on a plate and cover with a paper towel. Set another plate on top and let stand briefly to extract excess water. Transfer tofu to a cutting board and cut into 1/2-in. cubes.
2. Meanwhile, cook the rice according to pkg. directions. 3. Heat 1 Tbsp. of the oil in a large nonstick skillet or wok over high heat. Add the tofu and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly golden, about 5-7 min. Transfer tofu to a plate and reserve. Return the skillet to the heat and add the remaining oil. Stir in the ginger and garlic; cook 30 sec. Add the edamame, stir fry and cook 5 min. Add the curry powder and curry paste; cook 1 min., stirring. Add the tofu and cashews and cook 1 min. until hot. Stir in the coconut milk, fish sauce, sugar, and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, 3-4 min. Serve over the rice. Nutritional information:
