Fry the tofu

Heat 2 tablespoons of neutral oil in a wok or large heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high heat until shimmering.

Add tofu in a single layer without crowding — work in two batches if needed. Cook for 3–4 minutes per side, turning occasionally, until golden and crispy on all sides. Remove and set aside.

Build the curry

Open the coconut milk cans without shaking. Spoon the thick coconut cream from the top of both cans into the same wok over medium heat — you should get about ¾ cup. Reserve the remaining thin coconut milk.

Heat the cream until it begins to bubble and simmer, about 2–3 minutes.

Add the curry paste and stir constantly, pressing and folding the paste into the cream for 3–5 minutes until the mixture is very fragrant, has deepened in color, and the oil begins to pool and separate around the edges of the paste. This is the bloom — don't rush it.

Pour in the reserved thin coconut milk and vegetable stock. Stir to combine and bring to a gentle boil.

Add the Thai eggplant and cook for 5 minutes. Add the red bell pepper and baby corn and cook for another 3–4 minutes, until the eggplant is just tender and the pepper has softened but still has some bite.

Add the fried tofu, makrut lime leaves, vegetarian fish sauce, and coconut sugar. Stir gently to coat without breaking the tofu. Simmer for 2–3 minutes to let everything come together.

Taste and adjust — more fish sauce for salt, more coconut sugar for balance, a squeeze of lime if it needs brightness.

Remove from heat. Fold in Thai basil leaves off the heat only, so they stay bright green and fragrant.

Serve immediately over jasmine rice.
