INGREDIENTS
1.25 cups Chickpeas (205g)
0.5 cup Firm Tofu (125g)
1/2 medium Onion (50g)
2 cloves Garlic (6g)
1 piece Fresh Ginger (1-inch, 15g)
0.5 cup Canned Tomatoes (120g)
1 cup Fresh Spinach (30g)
0.25 cup Light Coconut Milk (60ml)
2 tbsp Fresh Cilantro (8g)
0.5 tsp Cumin Powder
0.5 tsp Coriander Powder
0.25 tsp Turmeric Powder
0.25 tsp Garam Masala
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Drain and rinse the chickpeas if using canned.
Press the firm tofu lightly to remove excess moisture, then cut into cubes.
Finely dice the onion, mince the garlic, and grate the fresh ginger.
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Add a splash of water or a light cooking spray, then sauté the onion, garlic, and ginger until soft and fragrant.
Stir in the cumin, coriander, turmeric, and garam masala. Toast the spices lightly to release their aroma.
Add the chickpeas and tofu cubes to the pan, gently stirring to coat them with the spices.
Pour in the canned tomatoes and light coconut milk, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Allow the curry to simmer for 8-10 minutes so the flavors meld, then stir in the fresh spinach until just wilted.
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and garnish with fresh cilantro.
Serve warm on its own or over a small portion of brown rice or quinoa if desired.
