We’re all for plant-based meals that don’t sacrifice on flavour or satiety, and this one ticks all the boxes! This tofu is gently spiced with Mumbai flavours and tossed in a sweet apricot sauce for mouth-watering goodness. Garlicky veggies and fluffy rice are the perfect accompaniments!
We’ve replaced the crushed roasted cashews in this recipe with slivered almonds due to local ingredient availability. It’ll be just as delicious, just follow your recipe card!
