Step 1

Drain the excess water from the tofu and cut it into cubes.

Combine one tablespoon of gram flour, chilli powder and turmeric to make a marinade.

Use your hands to very gently toss the tofu in the marinade until well coated and leave for 15 minutes.

During those 15 minutes, place the pot on medium heat and add one tablespoon of oil.

Step 5

Add the bay leaf, cardamom and the cinnamon stick and cook for a minute.

Step 6

Add the onion to the pot and saute until it softens and changes colour.

Step 7

Add the tomatoes, ginger and garlic paste and the salt and cook for a few minutes.

Step 8

Add 50 ml of water (to prevent it from sticking), and the yoghurt to the pot to make gravy.

Step 9

Put aside the gravy and add the remaining oil to a pan on a medium heat.

Step 10

Add the marinaded tofu to it and fry until golden brown.

Step 11

Add the fried tofu to the gravy, put the remaining water, and let it cook on slow heat for 5 minutes.

Step 12

Top it up with the green chillies and the garam masala and serve hot.
