Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 4 large yellow onions
- 4 large garlic cloves
- 1 inch fresh ginger
- 2 tablespoons curry powder
- 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 1 teaspoon coriander seeds

Instructions
Peel and thinly slice the yellow onions. Mince the garlic cloves and grate the ginger.
In a large pot, heat the coconut oil over medium heat. Add the cumin seeds and coriander seeds. Stir for about 1 minute until they begin to crackle and release their aroma.
Add the sliced onions to the pot. Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are soft and golden brown.
Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger. Cook for another 2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the curry powder and turmeric powder to the pot, stirring well to coat the onions with the spices.
Pour in the coconut milk and chicken broth. Stir to combine and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Reduce the heat to low and let the curry simmer for about 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Season the curry with sea salt and black pepper to taste.
Just before serving, squeeze in fresh lime juice and garnish with chopped fresh cilantro.
Serve the Paleo Onion Curry warm, on its own or with a side of cauliflower rice to keep it strictly paleo.
