Ingredients

1/2 onions, finely chopped 100 g
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 apples, peeled then cut into quarters 180 g
4 slices canned pineapple, cut into bite-size pieces 150 g
2 bananas, small, cut into bite-size pieces 300 g
300 g watermelon, cut into bite-size pieces
2 tbsp butter, unsalted 28 g
2 tbsp curry powder 18 g
1 cup vegetable broth 250 mL
460 g firm regular tofu, cut into 1,5 cm cubes 2 1/4 cups
1 tbsp canola oil 15 mL
1/2 cup cream 15% 125 mL
1 pinch salt [optional] 0.2 g
ground pepper to taste [optional]

Method

  1. Finely chop the onion and mince the garlic. Peel the apple, cut it into quarters, remove the core, then grate the flesh. Cut the pineapple slices, banana, and watermelon into bite-size pieces. Set the fruit and the juice of the pineapple can aside.
  2. Heat half of the butter in a pan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, then sauté 3-4 min until they become translucent. Add the apple and cook 3-4 min until it starts to soften. Add the curry powder and sauté 1 min with stirring. Stir in the broth, and 3-4 tablespoons of the pineapple juice. Cover and simmer 12-15 min with occasional stirring.
  3. Cut the tofu into 1,5 cm cubes and gently press between paper towels to remove excess moisture. Heat the oil in another large, heavy skillet over medium heat. Add the tofu cubes in single layer and cook with some stirring until just golden, about 4-5 minutes. Transfer the tofu to the curry mixture. Pour the cream into the tofu and curry pan, bring to a boil, then season with salt and pepper. Keep the pan warm over very low heat.
  4. Add the remaining butter to the skillet used to sauté the tofu cubes. Add the banana and pineapple pieces (not the watermelon) and sauté 2-3 min.
  5. Serve the tofu curry with the fruits, adding the watermelon pieces on top.

I wasn't crazy about the flavor of the banana in the dish... Next time I will be using cooking banana instead of regular one; I guess this should do the trick.

I was a bit dubious about how this would turn out, but it's really delicious. I servedvit with brown basmati and a green salad with cucumber. I used curry powder but a good paste like Pataks would also be tasty. Recommended.

An excellent fruit curry. I substituted the curry powder with a Gourmet Village Mango curry spice mix, and used coconut milk instead of cream to make it Vegan. Also, since I used a mango-curry mix, I replaced the watermelon with mango. What I sacrificed in texture I made up for in taste. :)
