Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams chickpeas (cooked or canned, drained and rinsed)
- 400 grams potatoes (peeled and diced)
- 400 milliliters coconut milk
- 1 medium onion (finely chopped)
- 3 garlic cloves (minced)
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger (grated)
- 2 tablespoons curry powder
- 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 250 milliliters vegetable broth
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro (chopped, for garnish)
- 1 fresh lime (sliced, for serving)
- 0.5 teaspoon red chili flakes (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and sauté for 4-5 minutes until soft and translucent.
Stir in the garlic and ginger, cooking for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the curry powder, turmeric, cumin, and coriander, stirring to coat the onion mixture with the spices. Cook for 1-2 minutes to toast the spices.
Add the diced potatoes and stir well to combine with the spices.
Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover, and let cook for 10-12 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
Stir in the chickpeas and coconut milk, and season with salt and black pepper. Simmer uncovered for an additional 10-12 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the curry to slightly thicken.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt or pepper if needed.
Remove from heat and garnish with fresh cilantro and optional red chili flakes.
Serve hot with steamed rice, naan, or flatbread, and a slice of lime on the side for added brightness.
