Before starting, preheat the oven to 450˚F.Wash and dry all produce. Pat tofu dry with paper towels, then cut into 1/4-inch pieces. Add tofu, half the Indian Spice Mix and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to an unlined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Roast in the bottom of the oven, stirring halfway through, until golden-brown and crisp, 12-14 min.

Heat a large pot over medium-high heat.When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil and half the onions. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 2-3 min.Add chickpeas, canning liquid, curry paste, vegetable stock powder, remaining Indian Spice Mix and 1 cups (2 cups) water.
