Caramelize the sugar over medium heat. Stir in the curry paste, peanut butter, coarsely crushed peanuts, coconut milk, and about 100 ml of water. Bring to a boil, add the cream, and simmer uncovered for 10 minutes. Finally, season with soy sauce. Slice the spring onions diagonally and dice the tofu. Heat 4 tablespoons of oil in a wok and fry the tofu until golden brown. Drain on kitchen paper. Discard the fat. Heat 3 tablespoons of oil and fry the broccoli over high heat for about 4 minutes, then deglaze with the vegetable stock. Cook over medium heat for 3 minutes. Stir in the tofu and spring onions, season with soy sauce, and cook for a further 2 minutes. Serve the peanut sauce with the vegetables. Basmati rice goes very well with this dish.
