Step three

Place the tofu and half of the cooked mushrooms in a food processor and blitz until smooth. Chop the other half of the mushrooms and add to the bowl along with the coriander, breadcrumbs and tofu mushroom mix. Mix together, season to taste and form into walnut sized balls, there should be around 16.

Step four

In a large frying pan, heat the remaining oil and fry the tofu balls, browning all over. Set aside.

Step five

Add the spices from the spice sachet into the pan and stir-fry for 10 seconds. Add in the Massaman paste and coconut sauce from the two pouches and bring to a simmer. Add in the little neatballs and simmer for 2-3 minutes, adding a little water for a thinner consistency if eating with rice.
