Indian Tofu Curry




I tried an Indian-spiced tofu dish today, and loved the results.  Here's the recipe:

1 pound extra firm tofu, cut into 1 inch cubes 
1/3 cup fat free yogurt
1 tsp ginger paste
1 tbsp garlic paste
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp turmeric
1 tsp garam masala
1 tsp cumin seeds
1 tsp mustard seeds
1-3 dried red chillies
1/2 cup salsa
1-2 tsp oil

1.  Heat the oil in a wok. Add mustard seeds.
2. When mustard seeds begin to pop, add cumin seeds, turmeric, garam masala and red chillies. Immediately add salsa and heat through. 
3. Add tofu and salt. Cook on low heat until tofu is heated through. 
4. This dish can be served immediately, but will taste better the next day (the flavors will penetrate into the tofu better.)
