Mix spices together in a small bowl.
Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a pot over medium. Add onion and fry until soft.
Add garlic and ginger and stir for 1 minute.
Add bell pepper and cook 1-2 minutes.
Add spices and stir for 30 seconds to toast.
Add a splash of water if the bottom of the pot is sticking. Add tomatoes and crush with a large spoon or potato masher.
Add water, bouillon, and chickpeas and bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium low to maintain a gentle simmer for 10-15 minutes.
Meanwhile, pan fry the tofu. Heat remaining 1 tsp olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add tofu cubes and a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook for a few minutes on each side until golden brown.
Blend the cashews and water to make the cashew cream.
Add the tofu to the curry, along with the cashew cream, frozen peas, spinach, and salt. Simmer another 5 minutes. Add a splash of water if the curry is too thick.
Turn off heat and stir in lemon juice and cilantro. Taste and add more salt if needed.
