Quick tofu red curry

Not an authentic thai curry by any means, but a delicious take on one all the same. I normally make my curry pastes from scratch and spend quite a lot of time allowing the flavours to infuse, but for this, I didn't have the time nor the ingredients, so I worked with what I had. For such a quick and easy recipe, I was really pleased with how it turned out.
Also, I'm now pregnant so I'm gathering lots of low effort, yet still freshly home-cooked recipes that I can call upon when the baby arrives later this year as I'm determined that maintain our fresh and healthy diet, even when I'm tired or time is constrained.

Steps
- 1
Heat a good splash of oil in a saucepan over a medium heat. Fry the shallot until soft. Add the butternut squash and fry for a couple of minutes. Then add the garlic and fry for a minute.

Add the curry paste, coat the vegetables and fry for 2 minutes. Then add the coconut milk. Bring to the boil, reduce the heat and simmer for a couple of minutes before adding the tofu, sugar, fish sauce and lime leaves.

Simmer the mixture for 10-15 minutes until the butternut squash is soft. Taste and season as to your preference. Serve with steamed rice (I used Jasmine).
