Spicy Chickpea and Vegetable Simmer
A vibrant, hearty stew featuring tender chickpeas and silken tofu simmered with a medley of red bell pepper, zucchini, red onion, and fresh spinach. Spiced with cumin, chili powder, and smoked paprika, this dish offers a warming, subtly spicy flavor ideal for any meal of the day.
INGREDIENTS
1 cup canned chickpeas
250 grams firm tofu
1 medium red bell pepper
1 medium zucchini
1/2 red onion
1 cup spinach
1 teaspoon olive oil
2 cloves garlic
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon fresh ginger
PREPARATION
Heat the olive oil in a large, deep skillet over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and grated fresh ginger; sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Stir in the chopped red bell pepper, zucchini, and sliced red onion; cook for 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften.
Cube the firm tofu and add it along with the rinsed chickpeas to the skillet.
Sprinkle in the ground cumin, chili powder, and smoked paprika; stir well to coat all ingredients evenly.
Pour in a splash of water if needed to create a light simmer, then lower the heat and let everything cook together for 8-10 minutes until the tofu absorbs the spices and the vegetables are tender.
Just before serving, fold in the fresh spinach and cook until wilted, about 1 minute.
Taste and adjust seasonings if needed, then serve warm.
