Method
How to make it
Pat the tofu dry and season well with salt, pepper, and a little of the spice mix.
Heat the neutral oil in a wok over medium-high and roast the tofu until deeply colored.
Add the aromatics with the lime leaves and bell pepper; cook until fragrant and just tender.
Build the panang sauce in the pan and simmer until it clings to everything.
Fold it back together, taste for salt, and finish with the fresh herbs.
