Ingredients
250
g
firm tofu
cubed
1/2
tablespoon
extra virgin olive oil
3
garlic cloves
minced
1
tablespoon
fresh ginger
grated
2
teaspoons
Indian curry powder
200
ml
coconut milk
I use light coconut milk
A
pinch of
salt
Some
black pepper
150
g
fresh spinach
roughly chopped
Instructions
In a wok or large frying pan with a lid, heat the oil and sauté the tofu for a few minutes until browned a bit.
Add the garlic, ginger and curry powder and quickly stir-fry for a minute to allow the flavors to develop, then add the coconut milk.
Season to taste with salt and pepper (check if your curry powder contains salt before adding salt to your dish) and cover with a lid.
Simmer over low heat for about five minutes.
Stir in the fresh spinach, mix it all up well for about a minute or until the spinach is just beginning to wilt. Then serve immediately.
Notes
I generally serve this quick dish with Dahl, brown Basmatti rice or homemade chapatis, and poppadoms. Quick fix Indian and delish!
