Sayur Asem (Tamarind Soup)

Sayur asem mbalelo 

Wanted this to be #vegan but I used an instant spice-powder which apparently has crustacean in it 

In Indonesia we don’t add potatoes nor quinoa, not even spinach btw, that is why I said mbalelo hahahah

1 cup sliced long beans (No Frills)
2 potatoes, cubed
1 bag puffed-tofu (Superstore)
1 cup packed fresh spinach
Enough water to cover
1 pouch Sayur Asem Indofood (instant tamarin soup powder)
Vegeta powder to taste
2 heaping tbsp cooked soy beans (I was making tempeh and set aside 2 tbsp boiled soybeans)
2-3 tbsp white quinoa

Place potatoes in water, bring to boil
Drop in long beans
Cook until half-tender
Add in Tofu
Add in instant soup powder
Adjust flavor with vegeta
lower temp to medium-low
Add in spinach, cooked soy beans and quinoa
Cook for another 10 mins
(Potato long beans should be tender and quinoa are done)
