1

Press tofu between 2 plates with a heavy weight on the top plate. Drain and discard the liquid. Crumble or cube the tofu and toss with turmeric and black salt.

2

In a large non-stick skillet, place the diced onion and garlic over a medium-high heat. Cover skillet. Watch carefully. If veggies start to stick, add 1 tablespoon water or veggie broth. Stir and re-cover skillet. Cook, stirring often, until vegetables have softened and started to brown on the edges, about 5 minutes

3

Add soy chorizo, if using, and cook for 2 minutes, stirring often.

4

Add potatoes to skillet. Turn heat down to medium. Cook until potatoes are fork tender (about 10 minutes), stirring often. Add water as necessary, 1 tablespoon at a time.

5

Add tamari sauce, and remaining spices and herbs to the skillet. Stir well.

6

Add tofu to the skillet with the chopped spinach. Fold gently to combine. Cover and warm until the spinach wilts.

Taste and add more seasonings, if desired.

8

Place the tofu mixture in a covered casserole dish.
