Low-Fat Tofu and Bell Pepper Curry Recipe

Prepare Tofu:

Press the tofu to remove excess water and cut it into cubes.

Sauté Aromatics:

In a large pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and let them splutter. Add finely chopped onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Sauté until the onion is golden brown.

Add Spices:

Add coriander powder, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and garam masala. Stir well to coat the onions with the spices.

Add Tofu and Vegetables:

Add the cubed tofu and sliced bell peppers to the pan. Mix them with the spiced onions.

Pour Tomato Puree:

Pour in the tomato puree and stir to combine all the ingredients.

Add Liquid:

Pour in water or vegetable broth to create a curry consistency. Add salt to taste. Bring the curry to a gentle boil.

Simmer:

Reduce the heat to low, cover the pan, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the vegetables to become tender.

Garnish:

Garnish the tofu and bell pepper curry with fresh cilantro if desired.

Serve:

Serve the curry over brown rice or quinoa. Add lemon wedges on the side for a citrusy kick.
