Method
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400ºF. Bake the tofu on parchment lined sheet pans for about 20 minutes, until golden and slightly crispy.
Step 2
Meanwhile, sauté the cumin seeds and mustard seeds until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the red onion, garlic cloves, green chilies, turmeric, cinnamon, chili powder and curry powder. Sauté for about 5 minutes, then add the coconut milk, vegetable broth, baby bok choy and baked tofu. Cook until cooked through and the bok choy is just wilted.
Step 3
Remove from the heat. Add the cashews, lime juice and salt. If using, add the maple syrup. Serve over brown rice noodles.
