Steps
- Place spinach in large, microwave-safe bowl; cover and microwave on HIGH 3 minutes or until wilted. Remove from bowl and let stand to cool. Place greens in same bowl; cover and microwave on HIGH 4 minutes or until wilted. Let stand to cool.
- Meanwhile, slice tofu into 1-inch-thick planks. Wrap in paper towels and place in baking dish. Set second dish on top to press tofu (about 20 minutes). Chop cilantro (¼ cup) and jalapeño finely, removing membranes and seeds if desired. Drain tomatoes. Chop spinach and greens coarsely.
- Preheat large, heavy-bottom saucepan (or Dutch oven) on medium 2–3 minutes. Place oil in pan; stir in cumin, coriander, paprika, cardamom, and cinnamon; cook and stir 30 seconds or until toasted. Add onions and ¼ teaspoon salt; cook 3–4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender. Stir in jalapeños, garlic paste, and ginger paste; cook and stir 1 minute. Add tomatoes and cook 3–4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until mixture is dry and thick; remove from heat.
- Place ½ cup spinach and ½ cup greens in blender. Add one-half tomato mixture (about 1 cup), ¾ cup almond milk, and ¼ cup cashews to blender; blend until smooth. Add puree to pan with remaining tomato mixture and return to medium-low.
- Stir in pepper, lemon juice, and remaining spinach, greens, ¾ cup almond milk, and 1 teaspoon salt. Simmer 7–8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until mixture thickens. Cut tofu into small cubes; stir gently into pan during last 2 minutes of cook time. Top with cilantro and remaining ¼ cup cashews. Serve.
