Tofu Mushroom Korma

Tofu Mushroom Korma is inspired by a dish originating in the Indian subcontinent. This dish can be modified for those who are lactose intolerant or not, and for a nut-free version, try replacing the cashews with plain yogurt.

*Lite coconut milk is a low-fat alternative. You may also substitute for unsweetened, unflavored soy or nut milk, cow’s milk (for non-vegan), or you may dilute regular coconut milk with water (i.e. 2/3 cup coconut milk + 1/3 cup water for a recipe that calls for 1 cup)
