INGREDIENTS
3/4 cup canned chickpeas (130g)
200g firm tofu
1/2 cup cooked basmati rice (100g)
1/2 medium onion (55g)
1 medium tomato (80g)
2 garlic cloves
1 tsp ginger
1 tsp cumin powder
1 tsp turmeric powder
1 tsp coriander powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup water
PREPARATION
Press the tofu to remove excess moisture, then cut into 1-inch cubes.
Finely chop the onion, tomato, and garlic, and grate the ginger.
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until translucent.
Add garlic and ginger to the pan and sauté for an additional minute until aromatic.
Stir in the cumin, turmeric, and coriander powders, cooking for about 30 seconds to release the spices' flavors.
Add the chopped tomato and water, allowing the mixture to simmer for a couple of minutes.
Gently mix in the cubed tofu and drained chickpeas. Let the curry simmer on low heat for 5-7 minutes so that the flavors meld together.
Season with salt and adjust spices if needed.
Meanwhile, steam the basmati rice until tender and fluffy.
Plate the curry alongside the steamed rice and garnish with fresh coriander if desired.
