For a richer flavor, use full-fat coconut milk. Press the tofu for at least 30 minutes to remove excess water for a firmer texture. Feel free to add other vegetables like broccoli, mushrooms, or snap peas. Adjust the amount of sriracha and chili pepper to your preferred level of spice. The peanut sauce can be made in advance and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
