    Instructions


    1 Grate tofu into a large bowl. Add the carrot, peanut butter, curry powder, shallots, flour and soy sauce. Using clean hands, mix and squeeze mixture until well combined and the mixture comes together. Shape into four 1cm-thick patties.

    2 Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick frying pan placed over medium-high heat. Cook patties for 2–3 minutes each side, or until golden.

    HFG tip

    Firm tofu, or hard tofu, has as its name suggests a firm consistency and holds its shape once cooked. It is easily cut into slices or cubes, and is perfect for stir-fries, grilling, or baking. It can also be crumbed or coated, or shaped into patties. Firm tofu is ideal for marinating, or can be mashed and pan-fried for a vegan version of scrambled eggs. Drain excess water from tofu and place it on a paper towel for 10 minutes to absorb any excess moisture before using.
