Utensils

•Immersion blender
•Pot with Lid

Instructions

Make the Pilau
1
  • Place a pot over medium-high heat with 300ml water (per 2P), turmeric and stock.
  • Bring to the boil then add the rice.
  • Once boiling, lower the heat to medium and cover with the lid. 
  • Cook for 10 mins, then remove the pot from the heat.
  • Keep covered for another 10 mins or until ready to serve (the rice will continue to cook in its own steam).
Cook the Tofu
2
  • Meanwhile, drain the tofu and chop into 2cm cubes. Pat dry with kitchen paper.
  • Toss with half the North Indian spice, a drizzle of oil, ½ tsp salt (per 2P) and pepper.
  • Place a pan over high heat with a good glug of oil.
  • Once hot, fry the tofu until slightly crispy, 6-8 mins. Shift frequently to ensure it doesn't burn. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Once cooked, remove from the pan and set aside.
Simmer the Sauce
3
  • Meanwhile, halve, peel and chop the onion into small pieces.
  • Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Fry the onion until softened, 3-4 mins. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Blend the cashews and creme fraiche.
  • Add the remaining North Indian spice to the pan and cook for 1 min. Add tofu, cashew cream, passata, ½ tsp sugar (per 2P) and a knob of butter. Cook for 5-7 mins.

TIP: No blender? No problem! Finely chop the cashews instead!

Finish and Serve
4
  • Taste the curry and season with salt, pepper and sugar. Loosen with a splash of water if you feel it's too thick.
  • Roughly chop the coriander (stalks and all).
  • Fluff up the pilau rice with a fork and serve alongside the creamy curry.
  • Finish with a sprinkling of coriander.
