Method
Pat the tofu cubes dry, then fry in 1 tablespoon of the vegetable oil in a wok over medium-high heat for 6 minutes until golden on all sides. Lift onto a plate.
Heat the remaining oil in the wok and fry the onion for 3 minutes until softened.
Add the curry powder and fry for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the celery and stir-fry for 2 minutes until just starting to soften.
Pour in the coconut milk, light soy sauce and white pepper, and bring to a gentle simmer.
Return the tofu to the wok and stir gently for 1 minute to warm through.
Pour the beaten egg over the top in a thin stream and let it set for 30 seconds, then fold through gently so it forms soft, silky ribbons.
Scatter in the spring onions and stir through for 30 seconds.
Transfer to a serving plate and serve at once.
