Steps

1

Seeded tomatoes and roughly chop them with the rest of the ingredients in Step A.
2

Prepare chilies. Seeded and chop. If using dried chillies, soak in hot water for 5-10mins. I boiled mine.
3

Heat cooking oil over medium heat. Saute chopped ingredients until translucent and well cooked. Add ingredients in Step C.
4

Add in baby spinach and chillies and fry until the leaves wilt off nicely but not over-cooked. We want nicely green pureed spinach. Season with chicken cube/powder. Pour cream/fresh milk. Turn of the heat right away.
5

Wait until the spinach slight cool. Meanwhile, fry few slices of tofu and cube them.
6

Blend spinach. Return this blended spinach into the wok/pan and simmer for a minute or two. Stir in extra splashes of cream (optional). Lastly, Add fried tofu cubes to your pureed spinach.
