Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 25

14 oz extra firm tofu
1 lemon
1 cup yogurt
6 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon ginger, minced
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons cumin
2 teaspoons garam masala
2 teaspoons paprika
3 tablespoons oil
1 large onion, finely chopped
2 tablespoons ginger, minced
8 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons cumin
2 teaspoons turmeric
2 teaspoons coriander powder
2 teaspoons paprika
2 teaspoons chili powder
2 teaspoons garam masala
3 ½ cups tomato sauce, or crushed tomatoes
1 ¼ cups water
1 cup heavy cream, or dairy substitute of your choice
fresh coriander, chopped, to garnish
rice, to serve
naan bread, to serve

Steps:

  • Remove tofu from packaging and drain.
  • Place tofu on a couple of paper towels and find a heavy object to place on top of tofu, leave it there for 20 minutes.
  • Slice the tofu into bite-sized pieces.
  • Combine the marinade ingredients in a bowl then add the tofu.
  • Mix until evenly coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C)
  • Place the marinated tofu pieces on bamboo skewers, then place them over a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Make sure there is space underneath the tofu to help distribute the heat more evenly.
  • Bake for about 15 minutes, until slightly dark brown on the edges.
  • Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat, and sauté the onions, ginger, and garlic until tender but not browned.
  • Add the spices for about 30 seconds to release their aromatics and flavor, stirring constantly.
  • Add the tomato sauce and water, then bring to a boil and cook for about 5 minutes.
  • Pour in the cream and mix in the tofu, cooking for another 1-2 minutes.
  • Serve with rice and naan bread.
  • Enjoy!
