Curried Spinach and Tofu
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, such as safflower
- 1 medium onion, minced
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- Coarse salt and ground pepper
- 1 tablespoon curry powder, preferably Madras
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 2 packages (10 ounces each) frozen chopped spinach, cut into pieces (do not thaw)
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 3/4 cup reduced-fat sour cream
- 2 packages (12.5 ounces each) extra-firm silken tofu, drained and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
- Cooked rice, preferably basmati, for serving (optional)
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high.
- Add onion and garlic, and season with salt and pepper.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion begins to brown, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Add curry powder and ginger; cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Add spinach and the water; bring to a boil, breaking up spinach with a spoon.
- Reduce heat to medium; simmer, stirring occasionally, until almost all liquid has evaporated, 10 to 12 minutes.
- Stir in sour cream and tofu; cook just to heat through, 3 to 5 minutes (do not boil).
- Serve with rice, if desired.
- Tofu is sold in two types of packaging in grocery stores: refrigerated and shelf stable.
- Shelf-stable tofu can be stored at room temperature until opened, up to about 1 year (check the label for the use-by date); look for it in the Asian-food section.
