Peel the potatoes and carrots and cut into small cubes. Then cook in lightly salted water for 15-20 minutes.
Peel and chop the onion, set aside. Mash the tofu with a fork and mix with the oil and the mentioned spices, set aside.
Now fry the onions in oil until they turn slightly brown, then add the tofu mixture and fry for about 10 minutes.
Pour the entire contents of the can into a large saucepan, then mix in the fried tofu and the cooked diced vegetables. Bring to the boil over low heat, season to taste and leave to steep for a more intense taste.
The stew tastes very good with a wholegrain ciabatta.
