You can use any tofu but if you use soft tofu be sure to add it last, just to heat through before serving. It will start to fall apart after a few minutes and that is when you want to serve it - before it completely disintegrates.
-
Heat the oven to 150°c and toast the cashew nuts for 10 minutes, stirring at the half way point.
-
Heat the oil in a wok or skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, curry paste, lime leaves and 2 tablespoons of the coconut cream. Stir to break up the paste and activate the flavours, about 3-4 minutes.
-
Add the remaining coconut cream, tamari, pineapple and sugar. Continue to simmer over medium heat until everything is well blended, 3-4 minutes. Add the soft tofu and stir until it is heated through and begins to fall apart, 1-2 minutes.
-
Serve topped with sweet basil leaves and toasted cashew nuts, over a bed of brown jasmine rice.
