Step-by-Step Instructions for Vegan Thai Green Curry
  1. Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Tear tofu into bite-sized chunks and chop broccoli into florets.
  2. Toss tofu and broccoli with avocado oil, salt, and pepper. Spread out on prepared baking sheets. Bake tofu for 22 minutes and broccoli for 10-12 minutes until tender.
  3. In a blender, combine green curry paste ingredients, including galangal and shallots. Blend until smooth.
  4. Heat a can of coconut milk in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add blended curry paste and sauté for 3-4 minutes until aromatic.
  5. Pour in remaining coconut milk, soy sauce, and coconut sugar into the skillet. Stir and let simmer for about 5 minutes.
  6. Fold in the roasted tofu and broccoli, and cook on low heat for an additional 5 minutes.
  7. Remove from heat and serve hot, garnished with Thai basil and cilantro, alongside jasmine rice or crusty flatbreads.
