    Recipe Description

    This Classic Vegan Palak Tofu recipe is a delightful rendition of the traditional Indian dish known for its smooth, rich, and creamy texture, combined with the marvelous flavors of spices and herbs. The dish skillfully replaces paneer with tofu, making it a perfect vegan delight without compromising on the authentic taste and richness. Fresh spinach leaves are pureed and then simmered with meticulously marinated tofu cubes, ensuring that each bite is packed with flavor and nutrients. The inclusion of aromatic spices like garam masala, cumin, and turmeric not only imparts a signature aroma but also boosts the health benefits. Ideal for those seeking to indulge in the culinary marvels of Indian cuisine while adhering to a vegan diet, this version of Palak Tofu becomes a testament to the versatility of traditional dishes in accommodating modern dietary preferences.

    Ingredients

    • 2 tablespoons olive oil
    • 1 large onion, finely chopped
    • 4 cloves garlic, minced
    • 1 inch ginger, minced
    • 2 cups fresh spinach, blanched and pureed
    • 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
    • 1 teaspoon garam masala
    • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
    • 1/2 teaspoon red chili powder

    Steps:

    1. Press and cube the tofu, then marinate it with a pinch of salt and turmeric powder.
    2. Heat oil in a pan. Add cumin seeds, and once they start to splutter, add chopped onions, garlic, and ginger. Sauté until golden brown.
    3. Add the spinach puree to the pan along with garam masala, turmeric, red chili powder, and salt. Cook for 5-7 minutes.
    4. Add marinated tofu cubes and water. Let it simmer for 15-20 minutes on low heat, allowing the tofu to absorb the flavors.
    5. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve hot with naan or rice.
