1 . Stage
Place tofu onto a plate and place another plate on top. Set a 3- to 5-pound weight on top. Press tofu for 20 to 30 minutes; drain and discard the accumulated liquid. Cut tofu into cubes.
2 . Stage
Heat oil in a large, nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add tofu and saute, stirring occasionally, until nicely colored on all sides and moisture has cooked off, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
3 . Stage
Meanwhile, combine coconut milk, 1/2 cup water, and curry paste in a large wok or pan over medium-high heat; bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Add onion; boil for 3 minutes.
4 . Stage
Add potatoes, reduce heat to medium, and cook until potatoes are nearly cooked, about 8 minutes. Add zucchini and bell peppers; simmer for 5 minutes. Add 1/2 cup more water if curry is too thick.
5 . Stage
Cut bamboo shoots in half and discard any tough ends. Add to the curry with the basil. Add brown sugar and lime juice; taste and adjust seasonings. Stir in tofu.
