Press tofu between paper towels for 1 minute to remove excess water. Cut into 3/4-inch cubes.

Push tofu to the edge. Add curry paste to the center and cook 30 seconds until fragrant, stirring constantly.
Step 4
Pour in coconut milk. Add bok choy. Bring to a simmer and cook 3 minutes until greens are tender.
