INGREDIENTS
1.3 cups canned chickpeas (drained)

1 tsp olive oil
2 cloves garlic
1 tsp fresh grated ginger
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground coriander
1 tsp turmeric powder
1 tsp garam masala

PREPARATION
Drain and rinse the chickpeas, and pat them dry.
Cut the tofu into small cubes.
Heat olive oil in a medium pan over medium heat. Sauté the chopped onion until soft and translucent.
Add minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Stir in cumin, coriander, turmeric, garam masala, and red chili powder, allowing the spices to bloom for about 1 minute.
Pour in the tomato puree and add the chickpeas. Mix well to combine with the spices.
Gently fold in the tofu cubes, making sure they are evenly coated with the sauce.
Let the mixture simmer on low heat for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally to blend the flavors.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve hot.
