Simple Curry

Made an attempt at a simple curry last night - was a bit bland initially but I warmed to it as I the flavors continued to mingle.

1 Onion cut into wedges
about a TB minced garlic
Quartered Red Potatoes
1lb Tofu
1 can coconut milk
3 TB Garam Masala curry powder (started with 2, needed the third for flavor)
1-2 tsp Lemon Juice

Cooked the Onion and Garlic in canola, med-hi heat, for a few minutes. Add potatoes, cook 3 min or so. Sauteed with 1 TB curry. Added tofu, cooked to warm but not crumble. Added second TB curry. Poured in can of coconut milk, stirred and simmered until potatoes tender.

Serve over rice. We had about 2 servings for leftovers.

Notes: Had to add third TB of curry because it was very bland. Probably better to use a stronger curry powder than the Garam Masala next time. Consider using lime instead of lemon, add Cilantro, also use less coconut milk.
