Directions
1.
Cook rice according to package instructions in vegetable broth.2.
In small bowl, mix garam masala, turmeric, curry powder, paprika and salt.3.
Add half of spice mixture to container, set rest aside.4.
In container, add yogurt and mix well so spice is evenly distributed.5.
Dice block of tofu into 1/4" x 1/4" pieces, and add to the container.6.
Seal lid on container, and shake to coat all pieces of tofu. Store in fridge for 30 min.7.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.8.
Heat large pan with olive oil on medium high, and dice your shallots.9.
Cook shallots until translucent (~3min), .10.
Stir in tomato paste, minced garlic, ginger and spice mixture.11.
Cook until mixture becomes a brick red.12.
Add tomato sauce and coconut milk, stirring to a rich orange color.13.
Optional: add vegetable broth to thin out. I like my sauce thick, so I generally omit it.14.
Simmer over low heat for ~15 min to let sauce thicken.15.
Meanwhile, place the tofu on parchment paper on the baking sheet, spacing peices out.16.
Bake for 15 minutes, turn tofu and then bake for 15 minutes more.17.
Once all elements are ready, serve tofu over rice and coat with sauce.18.
Serve hot and enjoy!
