This Coconut Chickpea Curry is made in one-pot in just 30 minutes for a quick and easy weeknight meal!
Ingredients
Units
- 1 tbsp avocado oil (or vegetable oil)
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 4 garlic cloves, chopped
- 1 piece fresh ginger (about 3 inches), peeled and chopped
- 2 cans (14 oz each) chickpeas, drained
- 1/2 tsp turmeric powder
- 2-3 tbsp yellow curry paste (or any curry paste you prefer)
- 1-2 tbsp tamari
- 1 tbsp coconut sugar (or sub brown sugar or maple syrup)
- 1 tbsp lime juice
- 1 cup full-fat coconut milk
- 3/4 cup vegetable stock
- 1 cup chopped kale
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- (Optional) Yogurt, cilantro, and crushed peanuts for serving
Instructions
- Heat the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook for 1–2 minutes until translucent. Stir in the garlic and ginger and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- Add the chickpeas, turmeric, curry paste, tamari, coconut sugar, and lime juice. Stir well to coat the chickpeas in the spices and paste.
- Pour in the coconut milk and vegetable stock. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 15 minutes.
- Remove the lid and stir in the chopped kale. Let it cook for 5 minutes, or until wilted.
- Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Serve with rice, quinoa, or naan, and garnish with yogurt, cilantro, and crushed peanuts if desired.
Notes
- Start with less curry paste if you’re sensitive to spice, then add more to taste.
- If using dried chickpeas make sure to pre-cook them before adding them to the curry.
- Simmer uncovered for 5–10 minutes if you want a thicker curry.
- Add the kale just before serving so it stays bright and tender.
- Taste before serving and adjust with more tamari, lime juice, or curry paste.
- Serve with rice, quinoa, or naan to make it a complete meal.
