For Making the Palak Tofu
Heat oil in a pan and add in the onions. Saute for a minute. Add in the masala powders and saute for a few seconds. Add in the tomatoes. Add in the salt and the sugar. Cover the pan with a lid and cook on a low flame till the tomatoes are mushy.
Add in the palak paste and the water. Mix well to combine. Add in the tofu and simmer the curry for five minutes.
Palak Tofu is ready.
Notes:
Palak tofu is my take on the classic Indian palak paneer recipe. It's very healthy making it perfect for everyday cooking.
I like to serve curry with rice. It can also be served with roti, chapati or any Indian bread.
I have added a little cashews while making the masala paste for the curry. The little addition of cashews gives the dish a very smooth creaminess. If you want to omit the cashews, you can. Substitute with little soaked almonds or use a little coconut milk for that extra creaminess.
The recipe has green chillies and Kashmiri red chilli powder. While green chillies are spicy, the Kashmiri chilli powder is not very hot but gives the dish a very rich colour. Adjust the chillies according to your taste.
Frozen spinach can be used for making this recipe and it works perfectly well. Do not cook the spinach for long. Once it's wilted, it's done. Cooking for a long will make it lose its colour and will look dull green. While some people use only the leaves of the spinach, I like to use the stem along. The stem of the palak does not become stringy when ground and works perfectly well.
I used coconut oil for making the recipe today. Vegetable oil or olive oil can also be used. I like the flavour of coconut oil when combined with spinach.
