Meatless Monday Recipe–Bryant Terry Tofu Curry With Mustard Greens
Written by Vegetarian Star on May 12th, 2014 in Chefs, Food & Drink, Meatless Monday Recipe, Recipes.
Bryant Terry has a brand new cookbook out, Afro-Vegan: Farm-Fresh African, Caribbean, and Southern Flavors Remixed.
The word “Remixed” in the title alludes to a collection of revised songs on an album and like some of his previous recipes, Terry has included some suggested music to enjoy while preparing and eating the dish.
This tofu dish calls for “Green Chimneys” by Thelonious Monk from Underground in addition to fresh mustard greens.
The vegan chef and food activist has long been inspired by dishes in African culture and this tofu dish was developed from a Tanzanian one using fish in Taste of Africa, by Rosamund Grant and Josephine Bacon.
“I was able to explore such a diversity of flavor profiles, spices, vegetables, herbs, greens, and fruits — just starting with the African continent itself which is vast, and moving from there and traveling to the Caribbean and the [American] South and places where Africans have traveled historically,” Terry said of Afro-Vegan. “It was great to take the approach of a collagist with this book. Recut, repaste, and remake these dishes from all over the world.”
