Spiced Tofu With Wilted Spinach And Yogurt Recipe

Ingredients

12 ounces firm tofu, drained and cut into 1/2-inch cubes

2 tablespoons canola oil

Coarse salt

1 medium onion, diced

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger

1/2 teaspoon cumin seed, crushed

1/2 teaspoon coriander seed, crushed

1/4 teaspoon mustard seed, crushed

Pinch red pepper flakes

1 1/2 pounds fresh spinach, stemmed and chopped

1 cup low-fat plain yogurt

2 cups cooked brown rice

Preparation

Press tofu.

In a large cast-iron skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat. Add tofu and cook, turning, until golden brown, about 7 minutes. Transfer to a plate and season with salt.

Heat remaining oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic and cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes. Add ginger and spices and cook, stirring, until spices are toasted, about 1 minute. Add spinach and cook, stirring, until just wilted, 2 to 3 minutes.

Remove from heat and stir in yogurt. Season with salt and stir in golden tofu. Serve with rice.
