2 tablespoons vegetable oil or other neutral-tasting oil
½ medium onion, chopped in 1-inch long thin slices
¼ teaspoon turmeric
3 to 4 tablespoons plain or unsweetened dairy-free yogurt
1 cup plain unsweetened soymilk or coconut milk beverage
Chopped cilantro, for garnish
Instructions
In a bowl, mix the lemon juice, ginger, garlic, jalapeno, half of the cilantro, and chili powder. Season to taste with salt, and stir in the tofu until well-coated. Let marinate for 1 hour.
Heat the oil in a pan over medium heat and stir in the onions. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, or until translucent.
Slowly add the turmeric, yogurt, milk alternative and remaining cilantro to the pain. Stir and cook for a few minutes until sauce thickens.
Add the tofu mixture into sauce and cook for 5 minutes on medium heat. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve immediately with dairy-free Indian Naan bread or heated rice.
