- 2 teaspoons curry powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin

Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until softened.
Stir in the minced garlic and ginger, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the curry powder, ground cumin, ground turmeric, and red pepper flakes (if using), stirring to coat the onions and release the spices’ aroma.
Add the diced potatoes to the pot and toss to combine with the spices.
Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil.
Lower the heat to a simmer, cover the pot, and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
Stir in the garbanzo beans and coconut milk, and let the soup simmer gently for 5 more minutes.
Add the fresh spinach leaves to the pot and stir. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the spinach is wilted.
Season the soup with salt and black pepper to taste.
Serve the soup hot, garnished with chopped cilantro if desired.
