Chole

This is an indian recipe. We LOVE it. It's not hot, not spicy and is just a good comfort food. It's really easy and cooks in one pot.

1 chopped onion
3 cloves minced garlic
1 block firm tofu
½ tsp cumin
½ tsp garam marsala
2 tsp coriander
½ tsp tumeric
1 can garbanzo beans (chick peas)
2 14.5oz. cans crushed tomatoes
½ bunch of spinach (if desired)
1 small potato, cooked & cubed


1. In a large pot sauté onion & garlic & tofu in olive oil, about 5 mins. LET COOL.
2. Add all spices.
3. Stir in tomatoes, garbanzo beans (drained), spinach and potato.
4. Simmer on low ? 20 minutes.

This is a really nice, tasty meal. It is not spicy. We like parmesan cheese on top and a nice bread with it.

Serve over basmati rice.

p.s. Cosco has a wonderful brown basmati rice that you would never know is brown rice.
