🎥 Watch Us Make It

We’ve filmed the whole recipe so you can see exactly how we make our tofu jalfrezi

🌶️ A Vegan Curry Packed With Flavour

Jalfrezi is a fantastic curry if you like plenty of flavour and a bit of heat.

Our vegan version uses tofu as the main ingredient, combined with peppers and onions to give the dish plenty of texture and colour.

The tofu soaks up all those delicious curry flavours while adding a satisfying protein-packed element to the dish.

And the best thing? You don’t need to be an expert to make it.

🍛 What to Serve With Tofu Jalfrezi

We love serving this with some fluffy rice, but there are plenty of options.

Try it with:

• Basmati rice
• Pilaf rice
• Vegan naan
• Chapati or roti
• A fresh side salad

You can also add some vegan yoghurt or chutney on the side if you want to cool things down a little. 🌶️

👨‍🍳 Give It a Try!

If you’re looking for an easy vegan curry that’s full of flavour, this tofu jalfrezi is definitely worth trying.
