  1. Cook the jasmine rice according to the packet instructions and keep it covered while you make the curry.

  2. Pat the tofu dry and cut it into cubes. Heat the vegetable oil in a wide pan over medium-high heat and fry the tofu until lightly golden.

  3. Stir in the green curry paste and cook for 1 minute, then pour in the coconut milk. Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer.

  4. Add the sliced bell pepper and simmer for 6–8 minutes, until tender but still bright. Stir in the soy sauce and brown sugar.

  5. Fold through the Thai basil and sliced red chilli. Taste and season with salt, then squeeze over the lime and serve with the jasmine rice.

Notes

Adjust the curry paste to taste and add the lime just before serving to keep the sauce bright.
