Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 yellow onion
- 4 garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger
- 3 tablespoons red curry paste
- 13.5 ounces coconut milk
- 2 cups vegetable broth
- 1 head cauliflower
- 3 carrots
- 15 ounces canned chickpeas
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 0.25 cup cilantro
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 4 cups cooked rice
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Dice the onion and mince the garlic and ginger. Add them to the pot and sauté for 3-4 minutes until the onion is translucent and fragrant.
Stir in the red curry paste and cook for 1-2 minutes, allowing the flavors to develop.
Pour in the coconut milk and vegetable broth, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Cut the cauliflower into bite-sized florets. Peel and slice the carrots into thin rounds. Add both to the pot and stir to coat them in the curry sauce.
Rinse and drain the chickpeas, then add them to the pot.
Add the soy sauce, lime juice, sugar, salt, and pepper. Stir well to incorporate all the ingredients.
Cover the pot and simmer for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cauliflower is tender and the flavors have melded together.
Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more salt, lime juice, or sugar as needed.
Serve the curry hot, garnished with chopped cilantro, over cooked rice.
