This Indian Tofu Dopiaza recipe is easy to make at home, with all the flavors of Indian takeout! Serve over heaps of basmati rice, lemon biryani, or with a warm side of garlic naan bread.
In a large dutch oven or heavy bottom pot, heat the coconut oil over low heat. Add the garlic and 2/3 of the chopped onions, cover pot with lid, and sautee on low for about 15 minutes. Stir occasionally. Onions should become soft and tender.
Add the tofu to the dutch oven, along with the garam masala, turmeric, coriander, and garlic salt. Stir well to combine and allow the tofu to get coated in the spices. Sautee tofu for 3-4 minutes in the onions and spices.
Add the crushed tomatoes, Vegetable stock, bell pepper, zucchini, and the remaining 1/3 of the chopped onions. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low so the chicken is simmering. Cover with a lid and cook for 30 minutes until chicken is cooked all way through, and Vegetables are tender.
Remove pot from heat and stir in the coconut milk to make a thick and creamy sauce. Add fresh pepper, and cilantro for garnish. Serve over rice with garlic naan bread.
