Spicy Thai basil tofu (Pad Krapow tofu)?
.
Sharing another spicy dish that’s usually on the menu at Thai restaurant, called Pad Krapow Gai (Spicy basil Chicken). Of course, this is made with tofu.? See a tip on how to make tofu a little chewier for this dish.
.
Ingredients:
~ 1 package of firm tofu, drained and mashed
~ 1/2 cup packed Thai basil leaves
~ 7-8 Thai chilies, chopped
~ 5 cloves garlic, minced
~ 3-4 shallots, minced
~ 3 tablespoons coconut amino
~ 1 tablespoon soy sauce
~ 3 tablespoons ‘fish’ sauce*
~ 3 teaspoons coconut sugar
~ 1 teaspoon salt
~ 1 tablespoon ? oil
.
Whisk coconut amino, soy sauce, ‘fish’ sauce, sugar and salt in a bowl until well combined, set aside.
In a nonstick pan with low-medium heat (no oil), pan-fry mashed tofu until golden brown to get the chewy texture.
Using the same pan, push tofu aside, add 3 teaspoons oil and sauté garlic and shallots until soft. Add half the sauce, mix with tofu and let simmer for 2 minutes. Then, add chilies and remaining sauce and let the sauce thicken (when sugar caramelized). Finally, stir in basil and serve warm with your favorite grain.
* Closest sub that I can think of for fish sauce: 1 tablespoon sugar, juice of 1 lime, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1 tablespoon water, and chopped Thai chilies.
