Vegan Spicy Thai Basil Tofu

Vegan spicy Thai basil tofu. When I lived in Singapore, I had this EVERY WEEK at least once. It is just so so good! I remember one day when it was so spicy that it took me one hour to eat it...haha. So at home you can easily adjust the amount of chilies you use. It's a simple, quickly prepared Thai dish which is packed with flavor and one of my favorites! Hope yo enjoy!
