I wasn't that crazy about this... seemed a little bland to me. Maybe it's just because regular meat keema was one of my favourite dishes as a child so I had high expectations.

My husband and I DO NOT like tofu, but we love this dish. I serve it on top of basmati rice that I saute with cardamom pods, cloves, onions, and a cinnamon stick before adding the water to cook the rice. (Cooks illustrated recipe) Oh, yeah, DO use diced tomatoes in the recipe instead of fresh.

I skipped the whole long tofu draining and freezing step and it still came out great. I'll make it again.

I made this dish with curry flavored tofu and left out the jalapeno - wonderful! Everyone raved.

This dish was a pleasure to make! The tofu sops up all the flavours and fools people into thinking it's chicken. I don't even need to eat this with rice.

This is a quick and easy recipe for tofu. My husband and I really enjoy it. I used minced ginger from a jar and omitted the jalapeno pepper. I didn't have fresh tomatoes so I used a whole can of diced tomatoes. I can see why other reviewers would have found it dry without the extra liquid. Great over rice, and even better the next day for lunch!

Pretty good recipe for tofu, but I prefer creamier/saucier recipes for Indian food. Good, but not great.

Okay, after I tweaked it. I followed the recipe as written except to add a cup of broth as suggested by others. Good call. However, as is, it was very bland. It wasn't until I added extra onion flakes, garlic powder and cumin that I could deam it ready. This was something different, but not something I would make again. Thanks though.

Nummy Nummy In My Tummy, as my 10-year-old says! I did use the recommended 1c. vegetable broth (from cube); I mixed the curry powder and 1 tsp ground cayenne (our family loves spicy food!) into the broth, along with two T whole-wheat flour to help thicken it back up a smidge; might should have used cornstarch instead. Stirred the broth in with the tomatoes (I used canned diced ... much easier). Served over steamed basmati rice with naan (gotta have those carbs). Was even better next day, reheated ... flavors merged nicely. Thanks very much!!!!!

smells really great and tastes pretty authentic. i added some extra peas. although i didn't, i wish i had put in some cornstarch also because it was a little runnier than curry's supposed to be.

After reading the reviews, I also added vegetable broth. I enjoyed this dish very much. My boyfriend didn't but he's not big on Indian cuisine. Since I'm the one who reviews...4 stars!

I thought this recipe was great. My husband does not like tomatoes so I added a little vegetable broth. I would have like to thicken the vegetable broth with a little cornstarch. I would definitely make this dish again.

This recipie has great flavour, I think even people who don't care for tofu would love it! I served it over rice, but I think it would be great with naan as well.
