🕒 Prep Time: 10 min

🍳 Cook Time: 25 min
🍽️ Servings: 2

Ingredients

300 g brined tofu, cut into cubes
1 onion
2 canned tomatoes
3 tsp “Sun Kiss” spice blend (Sonnentor)
50 ml coconut milk
5 sprigs fresh parsley, finely chopped
3 tbsp vegetable oil
1 tsp sesame oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

In a food processor, blend the onion and canned tomatoes into a smooth paste.
Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a skillet and add the “Sun Kiss” spice blend. Fry for 5 seconds to release the aromas.
Add the onion-tomato paste and sauté over medium-low heat for 10-15 minutes until the mixture dries out and thickens.
Pour in 300 ml water, coconut milk, and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Cover and simmer for 20-25 minutes until the sauce reduces and thickens nicely.
Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 tbsp vegetable oil mixed with sesame oil in another pan. Fry tofu cubes until lightly golden on all sides. Drain on paper towels to absorb excess oil.
When the sauce is ready, stir in the fried tofu and chopped parsley. Taste and adjust salt as needed.
Serve hot with fluffy basmati rice or warm naan bread.

💡 Tips

Fry the spice blend briefly to unlock its full fragrance.
Simmer sauce uncovered if you want a thicker consistency.
Sesame oil adds a subtle nutty flavor that complements the tofu perfectly.
Garnish with fresh parsley for brightness and color.
