Instructions
Before you start, press tofu with a heavy object for 15 to 20 minutes. This helps in getting rid of excess moisture. Then cut into cubes and set aside.
Press the saute button and then press the adjust button to set saute to "less".
Once it displays hot, add the avocado oil and sesame oil to the pot. Then add the onion, garlic and ginger and saute for 5 minutes until fragrant, stirring often.
Add mushrooms, carrots, and tofu followed by red curry paste, tamari, rice vinegar and brown sugar. Toss to combine everything together.
Add 2.5 cups water or vegetable broth and salt. Stir and close the pot with its lid.
Press the manual or pressure cook button and cook on high pressure for 4 minutes, with the pressure valve in the sealing position. Let the pressure release naturally for 5 minutes and then do a quick pressure release.
Open the pot and press the saute button. Stir in the coconut milk. I added only 1/2 the can of coconut milk, you can add more.
Add the peppers. Also add the lime juice. Let the soup simmer for 2 minutes on saute. Add cilantro.
Serve this vegan thai curry coup with more cilantro and lime wedge.
Stove-top Instructions
Heat a heavy bottom pan on medium heat on stove-top. Saute all the veggies as mentioned in the recipe. Follow the same steps until adding the water. Then close the pot with a lid and let the veggies cook for 5-6 minutes or until they are tender yet retain their shape. Then add the coconut milk, peppers and lime juice. Let the soup simmer for 2 more minutes. Add cilantro and serve.
Notes
You can add chickpeas to this soup, you can also add potatoes. Cook for the same amount of time.
You can also add some green like spinach in the end. Add along with peppers and let it simmer for 2 minutes.
