  • 1/2 tsp garam masala
  • 1/2 tsp cumin
  • 1/2 tsp cayenne powder
  • heavy pinch of kala namak (may swap for nutritional yeast)
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/4 cup coconut milk, use full fat
  • 4-5 clove garlic, minced
  • 1-in piece ginger, minced
  • 1 medium tomato, diced
  • 2 cups baby spinach

Directions

  1. In a large skillet, over medium heat, warm the oil. Add the cubed tofu. Coat the tofu with the oil and cook for 3-4 minutes.
  2. Add 1/4 tsp sea salt, garam masala, cumin, cayenne and kala namak.
  3. Coat the tofu with the spices and then reduce the heat to medium-low. Allow the tofu to cook (partially covered) for about 8-9 minutes.
  4. While the tofu is cooking, in a high powered blender, add the water, spinach, coconut milk, remaining sea salt, garlic, ginger, tomato, baby spinach, and maple syrup. Blend until the mixture reaches a smooth puree.
  5. Add the spinach mixture to the cooked tofu, mix well. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed. Cook for 12-16 minutes on medium-low heat, covered.
  6. Serve over rice or quinoa, with naan or roti.
  7. Don't forget to sprinkle a little love! xo
