Lemongrass-Coconut Tofu

Milk Street Tuesday Nights

If you like Thai flavors and you like tofu, this could be the easy weeknight recipe for you!

The family member that chose this loved it. It was perfect for her soft diet after dental surgery, when it felt like everything she could have was sweet. The lemongrass and fish sauce definitely give it a Thai vibe, and it certainly wasn't too spicy.

Unfortunately, one of the other members of my family apparently hates tofu. You win some, you lose some. Everyone else thought it was good, but it was a no-go for that one.

I served this with Cilantro Rice, which we made here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-liESjBfUY
