INGREDIENTS

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil (can substitute with olive oil)
  • 1 medium onion diced
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 4 teaspoon curry paste (use less depending on your spice preference)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 in / 2 cm piece ginger minced
  • 3 1/2 cup coconut milk unsweetened
  • 1 tomato diced
  • 2 cup chickpeas rinsed and drained
  • 1 potato cut into 1/2 inch / 1 cm cubes
  • 1 cup broccoli broken into florets
  • 1 cup carrots diced small into 1/4 in cubes
INSTRUCTIONS

Instructions

  • Heat a large pot or metal skillet over medium heat. Add one tablespoon of oil. Then add the onion and garlic and sauté over medium heat for 3-5 minutes.
  • Add in the cumin, cayenne, curry paste, salt, pepper, and ginger. Give it a stir. This curry should be flavorful. Add in coconut milk and diced tomatoes and stir for 2 minutes.
  • Reduce to a simmer. Then add in the chickpeas, diced potatoes, broccoli, and carrots.
  • Cover this curry with coconut milk with a lid and cook for 10-15 minutes to soften the veggies. If you notice it is boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer.
  • For serving, enjoy this curry over rice or as is. I love to top with freshly chopped coriander.
  • Store the leftovers for 5 days in an air tight container in the fridge. When reheating on the stovetop, make sure to add in more coconut milk.
NOTES

Notes

Canned chickpeas are a nice and convenient option. If you are using dried chickpeas, 3/4 cup dried chickpeas equals 1 1/2 cup cooked chickpeas.
