This one is more Thai than Indian, but it&#8217;s every bit as good, built from scratch with a homemade curry paste instead of store-bought. Don&#8217;t let that scare you off, it&#8217;s genuinely easy, just a food processor and a few minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Charred tofu, broccoli, green beans, and peas simmer together in a rich coconut cream sauce, finished with plenty of fresh herbs. It&#8217;s vibrant, fragrant, and comes together in under an hour.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"680\" height=\"1020\" src=\"https:\/\/thehappylentils.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/IMG_1912.jpg\" alt=\"Green Curry with Charred Tofu, Green Vegetables and Coconut Cream\" class=\"wp-image-2099\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thehappylentils.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/IMG_1912.jpg 680w, https:\/\/thehappylentils.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/IMG_1912-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why You&#8217;ll Love This Recipe:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A vibrant, homemade curry paste with full control over the flavor<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Charred tofu adds great texture and a smoky note<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ready in under an hour, easier to make than it looks<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Naturally vegan and gluten-free (use gluten-free soy sauce)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"680\" height=\"453\" src=\"https:\/\/thehappylentils.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/IMG_1925.jpg\" alt=\"Green Curry with Charred Tofu, Green Vegetables and Coconut Cream\" class=\"wp-image-2101\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thehappylentils.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/IMG_1925.jpg 680w, https:\/\/thehappylentils.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/IMG_1925-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Key Ingredients &amp; Substitutions:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Lemongrass<\/strong> \u2013 trim off the tough, woody outer layers before chopping, only the tender inner part is used. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Chili peppers<\/strong> \u2013 use green or red, adjust the amount to taste. For a milder curry, remove the seeds, or skip the chili entirely. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Firm tofu<\/strong> \u2013 pressing it well before searing is key for getting a good char. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Soy sauce<\/strong> \u2013 use a gluten-free version to keep this recipe gluten-free.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Store-bought curry paste<\/strong> \u2013 short on time? You can swap the homemade curry paste for a store-bought green curry paste instead. Start with about 2 tbsp, then taste and adjust after adding the coconut cream, since store-bought pastes vary a lot in how concentrated they are.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"680\" height=\"1020\" src=\"https:\/\/thehappylentils.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/IMG_1931.jpg\" alt=\"Green Curry with Charred Tofu, Green Vegetables and Coconut Cream\" class=\"wp-image-2103\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thehappylentils.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/IMG_1931.jpg 680w, https:\/\/thehappylentils.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/IMG_1931-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pro Tips for Success:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Press the tofu well before cooking, this is the most important step for getting a good char.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>No mortar and pestle? A spice grinder or rolling pin works to crush the cumin and coriander seeds.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Don&#8217;t taste the curry paste on its own before cooking, it&#8217;s meant to be concentrated, the flavor balances out once it&#8217;s in the dish.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Want more sauce?
