This vibrant spicy Thai tofu with red peppers and peanuts is a colourful celebration of fresh ingredients and aromatic flavours. By combining protein-rich tofu with a zingy dressing of lime, soy and ginger, this stir-fry offers a satisfying meal that does not compromise on taste. The addition of fresh basil and crunchy roasted peanuts provides a wonderful contrast in textures, making every bite feel indulgent yet remarkably light.
As a diabetes-friendly option, this dish is naturally low in sugar and packed with nutrient-dense vegetables like baby spinach and peppers. It serves as an excellent midweek dinner for those seeking a heart-healthy, plant-based alternative to traditional takeaways. For a complete meal, serve it exactly as it is to keep the carbohydrate count low, or pair it with a small portion of fibre-rich brown rice.
