Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare the tofu: cut 1/4 block of tofu into roughly 1.5cm cubes. Cutting them into a manageable size prevents them from breaking apart too easily during cooking and allows them to absorb the curry flavors well.
Step 2
Lightly grease a pan and pan-fry the cubed tofu until golden brown on all sides. This step not only prevents the tofu from crumbling in the curry but also adds a delightful nutty flavor.
Step 3
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. Chop 2 cabbage leaves into thick shreds, and thinly slice 1/4 onion. Heat a little oil in a wok or deep pan. Add the chicken breast, cabbage, and onion, and sauté over medium heat until the onion becomes translucent. This process caramelizes the vegetables, bringing out their natural sweetness.
Step 4
Once the vegetables are well sautéed, pour in 400ml of water and bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and simmer for about 5 minutes, or until the chicken and vegetables are tender.
Step 5
Now, it’s time to add the flavor! Stir in 4 tablespoons of curry powder, 1 teaspoon of coriander powder, 1 teaspoon of cumin powder, and a pinch of turmeric powder. Whisk thoroughly to ensure there are no clumps and the spices are evenly distributed.
Step 6
Carefully add the pan-fried tofu cubes to the curry pot. Let them simmer gently, allowing the tofu to soak up the rich curry sauce.
Step 7
Continue to simmer the curry for another 3-5 minutes over medium-low heat. This allows all the flavors to meld together beautifully and the sauce to thicken to a desirable consistency.
Step 8
Ladle the hot, fragrant Chicken Breast and Tofu Curry into bowls. It’s delicious served with warm rice or a side of salad. Enjoy your healthy and satisfying meal, and remember to take care of your health! ♡
