How to Make Baked Curry Tofu

  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  2. In a 9x13 inch glass or ceramic baking dish, whisk together 1/4 cup orange juice, 2 tablespoons lime juice, and 2 tablespoons curry powder.
  3. Drain a 14-ounce block of extra-firm tofu thoroughly using paper towels.
  4. Cut the tofu block horizontally into three equal pieces.
  5. Stack the pieces and cut diagonally from one corner to the opposite corner, creating six triangles.
  6. Rotate the stack 90 degrees and repeat the diagonal cuts to create twelve triangles.
  7. Arrange the tofu triangles in a single layer in the prepared baking dish.
  8. Gently toss the tofu to coat evenly with the curry marinade.
  9. Bake for 25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the marinade is absorbed and the tofu is golden brown and slightly crispy.
  10. Serve immediately with sauteed spinach and basmati rice. Leftovers are perfect for sandwiches with your favorite chutney.
