Smart Tofu and Chickpea Curry

Smart Tofu and Chickpea Curry

with Spinach in Tikka Sauce

Golden morsels of tofu have a delicate creamy interior while the outer layer is delightfully crispy after getting a quick toss in the pan. Coupled with fibre-rich chickpeas stewed in a creamy tikka sauce, this curry is not to be missed! Smart is based on a per serving calculation of the recipe's kilocalorie and carbohydrate amount.

Instructions

Fry tofu
1
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
  • While the pan heats, pat tofu dry with paper towels. Cut tofu into 1/2-inch cubes.
  • When hot, add 1 tbsp (1 1/2 tbsp) butter, then swirl the pan until melted.
  • Add tofu, then season with salt, pepper and Cumin-Turmeric Spice Blend. Pan-fry, turning cubes occasionally, until crispy and golden, 4-5 min. (TIP: If spices start to burn, reduce heat to medium.)
  • Transfer to a plate.
Prep
2
  • Meanwhile, peel, then cut half the onion (whole onion for 4 ppl) into 1/4-inch pieces.
  • Cut tomato into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Roughly chop spinach.
  • Roughly chop cilantro.
Saute onions and tomatoes
3
  • Return the same pan (from step 1) to medium.
  • Add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter, then swirl the pan until melted.
  • Add onions and tomatoes. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 3-4 min.
Start curry
4
  • Stir in tikka sauce and stock powder. Cook, stirring often, until sauce thickens slightly, 30 sec.
  • Add 1 cup (2 cups) water and half the chickpeas with their canning liquid to the pan (use all for 4ppl). Bring to simmer over high.
  • Once simmering, reduce heat to medium. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until chickpeas are tender and tomatoes are broken down, 8-10 min.
Finish curry
5
  • Add spinach, half the tofu and half the cilantro to the pan. Cook, stirring often, until spinach wilts, 1-2 min. (TIP: If curry reduces too much, add 2 tbsp water at a time, until desired consistency is reached.)
  • Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
Finish and serve
