Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

1/3 c Oil 2 tb Cumin
3 md Onions, chopped 2 tb Oregano
2 Celery stalks, chopped 1 Bay leaf
4 Garlic cloves, minced Salt to taste
1 Bell pepper, chopped 2 c Water
1 Jalapeno pepper, minced, 1 cn Tomatoes
-(more to taste) 1 cn Tomato puree
2 lb Tofu chunks 2 cn Kidney beans
2 tb Red chilis, ground

Chop the onions, celery and pepper. Mince the jalapeno pepper and
garlic cloves.

Saute first five ingredients in oil until limp. Add tofu and saute;
until browned. Mix the spices together in a bowl and sprinkle into
the pot. Mix thoroughly. Add water, tomatoes and tomato paste. Stir.
Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 2 hours, stirring
occasionally. If desired, at this point, add the kidney beans. Taste
and correct seasoning. The addition of 1 tsp. to 1 T. of cayenne
pepper can make this gradually more spicy. As the recipe reads, it's
fairly tame.

The ground chilis are chili powder. Most chili powder is made up of a
combination of chilis, oregano, cumin, salt and garlic. If chili
powder is all you can find, then you will have to readjust the cumin
and oregano amounts.
