Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Avocado oil
- 1 medium Yellow onion, diced
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger, minced
- 2 tablespoons Curry powder
- 1 teaspoon Cumin
- 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
- 0.25 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 can (14 oz) Crushed tomatoes
- 1 can (14 oz) Coconut milk
- 2 cups Black beans, cooked and drained
- 0.5 bunch Fresh cilantro, chopped

Instructions
Heat the avocado oil in a large saucepan over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and sauté for about 5 minutes, until the onion becomes translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic and ginger, and cook for another 2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the curry powder, cumin, ground coriander, cayenne pepper, and salt. Stir well, allowing the spices to coat the onions and become fragrant, about 1 minute.
Pour in the crushed tomatoes and reduce the heat to low-medium. Let it simmer for 5 minutes to thicken slightly.
Stir in the coconut milk until fully combined and bring the mixture to a simmer.
Add the cooked black beans to the saucepan and stir well to combine.
Cover the pan and let the curry simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beans are heated through and the flavors meld together.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with additional salt if necessary.
Serve the black bean curry hot, topped with chopped cilantro and a squeeze of fresh lime juice.
Enjoy your Whole30 Black Bean Curry as a standalone dish or paired with cauliflower rice for an additional Whole30-friendly component.
