Method
Pan-fry the cubed tofu in a little oil until golden on all sides, about 6 minutes, then set aside.
Blend the shallots, garlic and ginger into a paste, and cut the potatoes into chunks.
Heat the vegetable oil in a wok and fry the paste and curry leaves until fragrant.
Stir in the curry powder and cook for 2 minutes until it smells toasted.
Pour in the vegetable stock and coconut milk, add the potatoes, and bring to the boil.
Reduce to a simmer, cover and cook for 25 minutes until the potatoes are tender.
Stir in the fried tofu and simmer for 5 minutes to heat through and soak up the sauce.
