Coconut Curry Chickpeas - A Low Cal Vegan Dinner in 30 Minutes or Less

[@fiandrhi]

I know everyone here is an expert cook and doesn't need notes or recipes, but for us inexperienced novice chefs, here are the details: Prep: Chop a thumb-sized piece of ginger Chop two medium-sized tomatoes Chop half an onion Chop 3 cloves garlic Drain a 540 ml can chickpeas Cooking: Add oil in pan Add onion, garlic, ginger Saute until fragrant Then add spices: 2 tsp curry powder 1 tsp garam masala Salt Pepper Cook until spices activate ... a minute or two. Now add tomatoes. Cook them down for a minute or two. Add 1.5 cups thick coconut milk (or cow's milk, yogurt, whatever). Bring to boil. Add in chickpeas. Let simmer 7-10 minutes. Last, add juice from half a lemon. Serve with long grain or, preferably, basmati rice.

I just cooked the recipe with some changes... it was amazing. I used some Indian spices called "Podi" and instead of 2 tomatoes, only one plus added red bell pepper. It is very tasty, comforting. Thank you The CooknShare for posting the recipe and please accept my apologies to tailored your recipe to my needs. I am a subscriber!!!

I think going to make this today . I have all these delicious and healthy ingredients already. YUM is RIGHT ...Thank you so much for sharing..

[@TheMichelex20]

Looks yummy and quick. I modify this slightly by using chopped canned tomatoes and I double the spices. I use a squeeze of lime. I also eat it over cauliflower rice.

[@anthonydouglascontares3471]

[@jillpeacock4540]

Yes thank you. Riced cauliflower.. great idea. !!! I love lime too. Mmmmm love all cuisines.. I really enjoy them. I want to make my own Ramen noodles... and healthy next... just throw them in with veggies and broth. Great stuff

[@amerramday]

You got it right. Try with riced sweet potatoes as well.

[@jillpeacock4540]

@@amerramday that sounds really good. Thanks

[@watchth1ngs]

excellent idea for low carb variant - I was thinking wild rice but this would be better

[@kh23797]

Thanks for the demo. I made this with dried chickpeas taken from a 500g packet (by the way, 1lb = 454g) that I rinsed, soaked overnight in cold water, then set to 7 minutes in my Instant Pot. I waited until the release valve dropped naturally (NPR) which added ~30 minutes. I adore chickpeas, and think dried ones eventually come out a tad more 'buttery' than tinned. I wilted in a big handful of spinach near the end, too, as the colour, flavour and nutrition complement those of the chickpeas so nicely.

[@ravicraoify]

Great recipe! Just a minor suggestion based on my experience. Add curry powder and garam masala only "after" you add tomatoes into the pan OR mix the curry powder and garam masala with a small amount of water before adding the paste into the pan. This will minimize the risk of the spices getting burnt and loosing their aroma. It also enables the spices to blend easyly with other ingredients in the pan.

[@trailratso]

YES!

[@peterramsamsam2068]

Garam masala is already roasted. You can just add it at the end.

[@gettingphinenow]

where can i find garam masala? never heard of that before...

[@ReggieChang]

@@gettingphinenow I found it at local grocery in the spices section.

[@rasbijalpatel310]

gettingphinenow well MASALA’s are very aromatic herbs/spices(like star anise,large cardamom,bay,mace.... Heat(garam) add to it by adding regular spices like cloves,cinnamon,bl pepper,Chili’s etc. no worries ask around and each family can give you their ingredients.

[@stevencarroll4250]

I just made this and it came out great. I use raw chickpeas (soak overnight to soften) which probably are better than canned. Easy and tasty.

[@kaydixie5727]

The chef has a pleasant speaking voice. BTW, garam masala comes in so many colors. Haven't yet seen one that bright, but now I want to try that type.

[@parwinali5823]

Me too! The one I’ve seen is light brown

[@rasbijalpatel310]

Kay Dixie I hv seen the more cayenne(chili powder)+paprika(kumathi mild marchu)... version in a fast food masala dish. More of color appeal. Garam masala is hardly so red.

[@juliabensonreazin7672]

I make my own garam masala spice, so I can see it being a different color depending on the recipe. It's a must for Indian food.

Tried this last night. Base flavour was great. I added half a lime instead of lemon. That flavour seemed to work better. Added one bird's eye chilli. Thank you.

[@helenwalters3740]

Great curry! I add sweet potato and some chilli, yum! I used lime juice instead of lemon and it was lovely.

[@MrMadieu]

Awesome & v.similar to my chick pea coconut curry. The difference I deliver is using coconut oil for sautéing onions, garlic & ginger, I then add the chickpeas with all my preferred seasoning, so they r coated with the seasoning. I then cook it (in Trinidad & Tobago, we say ‘run down’), with the coconut milk. Sometimes I will also add fresh basil toward the end too. So many concoctions💯 😍👍🏾✔️

For those of us that are not on social media, it would be nice to have a recipe to follow. Sounds delicious!

[@joanie9923]

That's what this video is.... a recipe, done very well I might add.

[@walkersofthelabyrinth]

I absolutely love this recipe. I have tried others, and this recipe is my favorite and quickest meal to make. Even though I had to stop for each ingredient, I was surprised that I had everything on hand, so it was an inexpensive, delicious, and flavorful dish for me to make. I will admit. I used the whole can of coconut milk and two cans of garbanzo beans. I like having the extra juice for dipping my nan bread. When I'm feeling adventurous, I add in some baked chicken. This really is one of the best and quickest dishes to make, Thank you.

[@jasonparrish8670]

Thanks for the easy and quick curry recipe! I would caution that if you're going to use yoghurt as a substitute for the coconut milk, before adding to the curry, you should mix 1 cup yoghurt with 1 tsp corn starch, otherwise the yoghurt will separate and you'll have something that looks more like a watery cottage cheese curry.

[@Golobtin]

Fantastic, in the spirit of CookAndShare, my tip is as follows: when you wish to use fresh tomato in your dish, add a little bit of good tomato paste as well. This way, the colour and punch comes from the paste, while the freshness and texture comes from the fresh tomato. Same tip can be applied to adding fresh herbs into the dish; if available, add a bit of dry version of the same herb into the dish as well.

[@pragawa]

I do that, too@fresh tomatoes and paste!

[@watchth1ngs]

i was thinking that fresh coriander would go well with this

In UK coconut water is often called coconut milk. Coconut milk is coconut cream. The ones that gives a better value is the block or powder. I find the tinned products okay but not great. I'm from the Caribbean and find the brown coconut 🥥 best one to use. However, very time consuming.
