——–  ————  ——————————–
  16            ounces  firm tofu — cut in 1/2″ strips
  1         tablespoon  ghee
  1              large  onion — chopped fine
  4             cloves  garlic — minced
  2          teaspoons  fresh ginger — minced
  24            ounces  canned crushed tomatoes
     1/2      teaspoon  garam masala
     1/2      teaspoon  salt
  1           teaspoon  sugar

Cook the tofu strips on a nonstick griddle, or broil in the oven, until lightly browned.  (The tofu will stick until it’s browned the right amount, then it will come away from the griddle easily.)

Melt the ghee in a skillet on medium-high heat.  Add the onion, garlic, and ginger, and cook, stirring, until the onion begins to brown at the edges.  Add the tomatoes, garam masala, salt and sugar, reduce the heat, and cook about 6 minutes.  Puree the sauce in a blender or with a hand blender.  Add the tofu and stir to mix.  Serve hot over rice.
