One of my FAVORITE Thai takeout recipes - Red Curry. It’s got heat and is packed with flavor in every bite, not to mention SUPER easy to make! You’ll definitely never need to order in anymore :)

Do I have to use tofu?
Nope :) you can use any meat substitute of your choice; this recipe goes really well with soy curls or just add extra veggies of your choice.
Does the tofu get soft after adding it to the curry?
No, but you have to make sure you press your tofu before cutting it into your desired shape. Packaged tofu comes with A LOT of extra moisture making it really soft - that's why I ALWAYS only use extra firm tofu or super firm tofu for these kinds of recipes. You want to make sure you press the tofu to remove all the excess moisture and then cut into cubes - this will help ensure the tofu keeping its shape without breaking or getting soggy in the curry.

Is it spicy?
Red curry is supposed to be spicy, but my recipe is made to be a little extra spicy (I prefer my food spicy), but if you want it less spicy then you can always cut down the amount of red chili paste you use - maybe only use 1 tsp instead of the whopping tbsp I use. You can always adjust the spice level if you feel like it's less.
I want it to be more 'saucy'
I only used 1 can of coconut milk for this recipe, but if you feel like you need to use more if your veggies are drying it out, then use 1.5 cans of coconut milk instead, just be sure to adjust the spice level to ensure it doesn't come out sweet.
