Thai Spiced Tofu

From real simple. Yay tofu!!

Place the tofu between layers of paper towels and weigh them down with a heavy skillet to remove excess water.

Set aside to drain for 10 minutes.

Combine the curry paste , sugar , and fish sauce.

Put half this sauce in a resealable plastic bag.

Add the tofu , seal , and set aside for 15 minutes.

In a saucepan , combine the green beans , broth , oil , and the remaining curry.

Simmer until the beans are tender , about 5 minutes.

Cover to keep warm.

Lightly coat a nonstick skillet with vegetable cooking spray and place it over medium heat.

When hot , add the tofu and cook until golden , about 4 minutes per side.

Transfer to a dinner plate and cover.

Serve with the green beans.
