Reduce the heat to a simmer, cooking for another 5-10 minutes to allow the tofu to soak up some flavours and to marinate. Squeeze the lime over the mixture and stir to combine it into it. Taste and season with more salt if you'd like.

Indian Butter Tofu "Paneer" - Tofu in Butter Masala Sauce | Vegan Richa Recipe

A simple version of the popular Indian dish, made completely vegan! Tofu is prepared in a unique way that couldn&#039;t be easier and somehow makes it taste a lot like chicken.

Vegan Butter Chicken

(16 oz) blocks extra-firm tofu

olive oil

vegan butter ((or olive oil))

onion,

garlic,

coriander

cayenne pepper

tomato paste

(13.5 oz) canned full fat coconut milk

rice

chopped cilantro

Easy Vegan Naan

Press the tofu: Wrap the block of tofu in paper towels. Place a plate or pan on top of the wrapped tofu, and put a couple of heavy books on top of that. Let the tofu press for 20 minutes. (You can skip this step if you get the super firm variety)

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Slice the tofu into about 6 slices (see photos in post above for reference). Now, rip each slice into medium-large pieces. You can also simply cut them into cubes, if you prefer, but ripping gives the tofu a great texture for this dish.

Add the tofu pieces to a large ziplock bag, along with the olive oil, cornstarch and salt. Close the bag, and shake gently to coat. Arrange the tofu evenly on the prepared pan, and bake for 25-30 minutes, until golden and crispy.

While the tofu bakes, prepare the sauce: Melt the 2 tablespoons of vegan butter in a large pan over medium-high heat. Saute the onion for 3-4 minutes in the butter, then add the ginger and garlic and cook for 1 more minute. Add the spices, salt, tomato paste and coconut milk. Stir until smooth and combined, then simmer for 5-10 minutes, stirring frequently.

When the tofu is done baking, add it to the sauce and stir to coat the pieces. Serve over rice with Easy Vegan Naan. Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro. Enjoy!

The tofu for Vegan Butter Chicken is prepared in a unique way that couldn’t be easier and somehow makes it taste a lot like chicken.

This vegan butter chicken, or tofu makhani is a creamy curry dream. You could mix it up by adding cauliflower, broccoli or any other vegetables of your choice!

cumin powder

tsp chilli powder

bay leaf

tomato passata

oat cream (or other non-dairy cream)

tbsp non-dairy butter

almonds

tofu

frozen peas

lime (optional)

groundnut oil

salt (or

Put your oil in a large pan and bring up to a medium-high heat.

Fry the onion until it starts to soften and turn translucent.

Add the garlic, ginger, spices, bay leaf and cook for a couple of minutes until fragrant.

Pour in the passata, give it a stir and bring up to a simmer.

Stir in the cream, butter and ground almonds - if the curry starts to look too thick at this point, just add some water, as the almonds can cause it to thicken up.

Put the peas and lime juice in (if using), give it a good stir and season to taste, around 1/4 teaspoon of salt should be enough.

Serve up with rice and some of our delicious naan bread.

Such a quick and delicious recipe! Creamy and spicy - I keep wanting to go back for more. Thanks for the fab recipe!

This was the most delicious curry I've made. Will be making this over and over. Really quick and simple to make too.

Third time I've made this, tonight, but this time just for me, so with all the spices! It's a wonderful curry and a fantastic recipe. Thanks, punks!

Such a great recipe! I used vegan chick'n instead of tofu because that's what I had in the freezer and it was soooooo good. I also added coriander because I'm just a fiend for it. Would definitely make again :)

A creamy, savory, rich vegan &quot;butter chicken&quot; recipe made with tofu. This recipe is 100% meat-free and packed with insane flavor. Pair this dish with rice, naan, or roti.

Vegan Butter Chicken (Murgh Makhani)

firm tofu

Salt

all-purpose flour

vegan butter

cumin seeds

garlic (crushed)

ginger (crushed)

cayenne pepper (adjust to taste, optional)

coconut milk

sugar (to tone down acidity, optional)

Freeze the tofu block overnight for at least 12 hours. Remove from freezer and thaw in the microwave for 10 minutes, or until soft. Carefully drain and press water from tofu block. freezing tofu helps create a &quot;meaty&quot; texture - I promise it&#039;s worth it.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. In a mixing bowl, carefully toss tofu with oil, salt, and then coat with flour.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange the tofu pieces onto the baking sheet with space in between each piece. Bake the tofu pieces for 30 minutes, flipping halfway.  Once done baking, remove the tofu pieces from the oven and set aside

Tofu &quot;Chicken&quot;

While the tofu is baking, in a large pan or skillet over medium heat, add 3 tablespoons of butter. Once butter is bubbling,  add the cumin seeds and cook for one minute.

Next, add the onions in the pan until they are tender, about 4-6 minutes. Add the crushed garlic and ginger, tomato paste. Cook for 1 minute.

Add to the pan the rest of the spices, salt, coconut milk. Stir well. Lower heat to low and simmer for 3 minutes.

Carefully transfer the vegan butter chicken gravy into a blender and blend until smooth. Pour the gravy back into the pan and add the tofu pieces. Stir and coat well. Stir in a pinch of sugar (optional) Simmer over low for 5 minutes. Serve.

Gravy

This is the BEST vegan version of Instant Pot Butter Chicken - using whole food ingredients like bell peppers, carrots, and onions. It&#039;s got a mild creamy flavor with the addition of canned coconut milk.

Vegan Instant Pot Butter Chicken

red bell peppers

green bell pepper

carrots

white onion

red onion

Tbsp curry powder

Chop up all of the peppers, onion, and carrots, and add them to the Instant Pot. Add in the tomato paste, water, and curry powder. Drain the tofu and place it on top of the veggies.

Close and seal the lid of the Instant Pot and cook at high pressure for 20 minutes. Do a quick release when done.

Carefully remove the tofu and a third of the veggies. Chop up the tofu into bite-sized pieces.

Add the canned coconut milk into the Instant Pot and use an immersion blender to blend until it&#039;s smooth. Then add in the chopped tofu and the reserved veggies. Enjoy with rice, naan, and a garnish of chopped cilantro (coriander leaves) if desired. Keeps in the fridge up to 3 days.
