In a wok or large saucepan, warm the coconut oil over medium heat and sauté the diced onion until soft and translucent.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, stirring for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Stir in the ground turmeric, cumin, and coriander to toast the spices lightly.

Fold in the cooked red lentils, cubed tofu, and chickpeas; let the curry simmer for another 5-7 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
Gently stir in the fresh spinach and season with salt and pepper to taste, cooking until the spinach has wilted.
