INGREDIENTS
1.5 cups cooked lentils (~300g)
100g extra-firm tofu
1 medium carrot, diced
1/2 cup diced tomatoes
1 cup spinach
1/4 medium onion, diced
1 clove garlic, minced
1 cup vegetable broth
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp ground coriander
PREPARATION
Rinse the lentils, then cook them until soft if not already cooked.
Dice the carrot and onion, and mince the garlic.
Press the tofu lightly to remove excess moisture and cut into cubes.
Heat a large pot over medium heat and add a splash of water or a minimal amount of oil if desired.
Sauté the diced onion and garlic until they begin to soften.
Add the diced carrot and stir for a few minutes.
Stir in the ground cumin, smoked paprika, and ground coriander to toast the spices.
Pour in the vegetable broth, diced tomatoes, and cooked lentils. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Add the tofu cubes and let the stew simmer for an additional 10 minutes so the flavors meld.
Finally, stir in the fresh spinach and cook until just wilted.
Season with salt and pepper to taste, then serve warm.
