Cooking:

  • Pat dry the tofu and cube it. Put it in a bowl and add the curry powder, coconut aminos, salt, and nutritional yeast. Let it marinate in the bowl for a little while. Then cook it on a pan until brown (and or then toss it in the oven for crispier tofu)

  • Boil spinach/greens until cooked
  • Put the veggies+greens in a blender with veggie broth or water
  • In a pot add oil+curry powder+garam masala until mixed. Then add the soup from the blender and mix.
