Cooking Steps
1
- Add penne to the boiling water. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender, 10-12 min.
- Reserve 1/2 cup(1 cup) pasta water, then drain and return penne to the same pot, off heat.
2
- Meanwhile, heat a large pan over medium-high heat.
- Peel and quarter carrot lengthwise, then cut into 1/4-inch quarter-moons.
- When hot, add carrots, 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) water, then 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) butter. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until water evaporates and carrots are tender, 5-6 min. (TIP: If carrots are tender before water evaporates, remove lid to finish cooking.)
- Transfer carrots to a plate.
3
- Meanwhile, roughly chop spinach.
- Pat tofu dry with paper towels, then cut into 1-inch pieces. Season with salt and pepper.
- When carrots are done, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter, then tofu to the pan. (NOTE: Cook tofu in 2 batches for 4 ppl, using 1 tbsp butter per batch.) Cook, turning occasionally, until crispy and golden-brown all over, 6-7 min.
4
- Add carrots, penne, curry paste, Tikka sauce, and 1/2 cup (1 cup) reserved pasta water to the pan with tofu. Stir to combine, then bring to a simmer.
- When simmering, reduce heat to medium. Cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce slightly thickens, 2-4 min. (TIP: If sauce reduces too fast, add remaining pasta water 1 tbsp at a time until you reach desired consistency.)
5
- Add spinach, 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter and 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) milk to the pan. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Stir until butter melts and spinach wilts, 1 min.
- Remove the pan from heat.
6
- Divide curried tofu penne between bowls.
- Sprinkle crispy shallots over top.
