Tofu Mushroom Curry

HERE'S A CONFESSION: I made so-so Viet vegetable curry for years, relying on fish sauce as a cheat but the flavor was off. Finally, I developed this stellar vegan version. It employs the Indian method of browning fried onion to craft a flavorful base. Garlic and ginger lend zip; tomato, fresh mushrooms, and MSG add savory notes. Tofu soaks up all the flavors. Serve this alluring curry with baguette and a salad, or rice and leafy greens. Use leftovers for tacos.
