Directions:

  1. Spray a 2-inch full size steamtable pan with pan release spray. Place the diced tofu in the prepared pan and sprinkle with half of the yellow curry powder. Stir gently to coat tofu with curry powder. Steam tofu for 2-3 minutes. Set aside. Alternately, bake tofu, covered, in a preheated 350°F oven for about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Place the clean Idaho® russet potatoes in a 2-inch full size perforated steamtable pan. Steam potatoes until they are tender through the center.
  3. CCP: Heat to 140°F or higher.
  4. Dice the steamed potatoes into ½ inch cubes. Set aside.
  5. In a large sauté pan heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the diced red onion, minced garlic, and diced russet potatoes. Continue to cook, stirring every 2-3 minutes, for about 15 minutes, or until the potatoes and onions have browned slightly.
  6. Stir in the cayenne pepper, dried thyme and the remaining yellow curry powder, and continue to cook for another 2 minutes.  
  7. Add the cooked brown rice, fresh spinach, and diced pimentos. Cook, stirring, just until the spinach wilts. Stir in the salt and black pepper.
