1. Cut the tofu into cubes about 1/2-1 inch in size. Spray or brush a non-stick skillet lightly with oil and heat it on medium-high.

5. Add the garlic and ginger paste and cook for another minute.
6. Add the tomato, curry powder, coriander, cumin, and turmeric and cook until tomatoes begin to break down.
7. Add the spinach, stir well, and cover. Cook until the spinach is completely wilted, about 3-5 minutes.
8. Transfer the mixture to a food processor and blend until almost smooth.
9. Pour it back into the skillet, add the yogurt and fenugreek and salt to taste.
10. Add the tofu to the skillet, and cook on low for about 15 minutes.
