Ingredients

  • 1 block extra-firm tofu pressed and cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 head cauliflower cut into small florets
  • 1 large onion finely diced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger grated
  • 1 tbsp garam masala or curry powder
  • 1 tsp ground turmeric
  • 1 tsp ground cumin

Notes

Storage: Store in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave, adding a splash of water if needed.
Make-Ahead: This dish tastes even better the next day as flavors meld. Prepare through step 7, cool, and refrigerate. Reheat before serving.
Substitutions: Use chickpeas instead of tofu for a different protein. Swap cauliflower with broccoli or bell peppers. For a creamier texture, stir in 1/4 cup coconut milk at the end.
Serving Suggestions: Serve over basmati rice, quinoa, or with whole wheat roti. A side of cucumber raita or a simple green salad complements the spices beautifully.
