The Spinach and Tofu Dip is a combination of spinach and tofu with pungent onions and aromatic herbs makes this dip as wholesome and flavourful as a subzi itself!
The nutty flavour and mealy texture of tofu complements the spinach very well, and so do not replace it with any other ingredient! Grind the mixture coarsely to get the best mouth-feel,
and also make sure you drain all the water after blanching the spinach to avoid ending up with a watery dip that one could easily mistake for a soup!
