Pre heat your oven to 190’c fan. Slice the smoked tofu into bitesized chunks, place on a baking tray and toss in a teaspoon of oil. Bake for 15-20 minuets, turning halfway through.
Whilst the tofu is in the oven prepare your curry sauce. Heat a tablespoon of oil in a sauce pan set over a medium heat along with your butter. Add half of your sliced red onion and sauté until soft and starting to brown. Add the paprika, curry powder, cumin, garam masala and cook for 2 minutes until fragrant then add the tomato paste, ginger and garlic. Cook for a further 2 minuets then stir in the tinned tomatoes. Allow this sauce to simmer for 10 minuets on a low heat then stir in the butter beans, cook for a further 2 minuets before stirring in the coconut cream. Cover and cook for a further 5-10 minuets on a low heat, stirring every now and again. Loosen with a little water if the sauce is becoming too thick.
Toss the remaining half of the red onion slices in the lime juice to gently pickle. set aside until ready to serve.
Remove the roasted tofu from the oven and stir into the sauce. Cover and cook for a further 5 minuets. Turn the heat off but keep warm whilst you prepare your rice and naan or flatbreads.
Cook you rice according to the pack instructions and warm your flatbreads or naan in the oven.
