Notes
You may directly toss noodles or rice in this stir fry and serve as orange fried noodles/ rice. If you have time on hand you may marinate the tofu for a longer time. I keep it this way in the refrigerator overnight sometimes. You may use veggies of your choice like okra, baby corn , bok choy . Adjust spices to your spice level. You may sub tofu with paneer. This stir fry pairs well with noodles as well as rice. The gravy thickens after cooling , keep it thin if you are eating way later than it’s cooked.
