Nummy Nummy In My Tummy, as my 10-year-old says! I did use the recommended 1c. vegetable broth (from cube); I mixed the curry powder and 1 tsp ground cayenne (our family loves spicy food!) into the broth, along with two T whole-wheat flour to help thicken it back up a smidge; might should have used cornstarch instead. Stirred the broth in with the tomatoes (I used canned diced ... much easier). Served over steamed basmati rice with naan (gotta have those carbs). Was even better next day, reheated ... flavors merged nicely. Thanks very much!!!!!

VERRY Dry . Like chewing a curried burlap sack . I saved it by adding a cup of vegetable broth.

This is a quick and easy recipe for tofu. My husband and I really enjoy it. I used minced ginger from a jar and omitted the jalapeno pepper. I didn't have fresh tomatoes so I used a whole can of diced tomatoes. I can see why other reviewers would have found it dry without the extra liquid. Great over rice, and even better the next day for lunch!

This recipie has great flavour, I think even people who don't care for tofu would love it! I served it over rice, but I think it would be great with naan as well.

I have been making this from a recipe book for a while and this is so much easier! Just as delicious too. I had to make my own curry powder using 2 tsp. ground coriander, 1 tsp. ground cumin, 1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper, 1/4 tsp. turmeric, 1/4 tsp. ground ginger. Thanks for sharing.

I skipped the whole long tofu draining and freezing step and it still came out great. I'll make it again.

smells really great and tastes pretty authentic. i added some extra peas. although i didn't, i wish i had put in some cornstarch also because it was a little runnier than curry's supposed to be.

Sadly, I think this is my lowest rated recipe so far! I wanted to like this so much, but even with adding to it after it was done there just wasn't much flavor to this at all. I tried it the way it was written and then added veggie broth and then added a myriad of spices, but it just wasn't the recipe we were hoping for. I'll keep looking!

Despite my love of both curries and tofu, i found this dish lacking "something". It was spicy but incredibly bland (how do you manage that?). I added a bit of veggie broth as suggested; i honestly did not see how you could eat it without. I would NOT make this again!

I didn't like this at all, I think it was the texture of it. The raccoons sure liked it!
