Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil, optional
  • 2 cloves garlic, chopped
  • ½ onion, chopped
  • A piece of ginger root about 2.5 cm or 1 inch, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon curry powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • ½ teaspoon turmeric powder
  • ½ teaspoon ground coriander seeds, optional
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ⅛ teaspoon cayenne powder, optional
  • 1 and ½ cups cooked or canned chickpeas, 250 g
  • 1 can coconut milk, 400 ml or 14 oz
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice, optional
  • 1 tablespoon coconut flour, optional

Instructions

  • Heat the oil in a frying pan and add the garlic, onion and ginger. Cook over medium-high heat for about 5 to 10 minutes or until golden, stirring occasionally. If you don't want to use oil, you can substitute it with a little water or vegetable broth.
  • Add the spices (curry, cumin, turmeric, coriander seeds, pepper and cayenne), stir and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Add the chickpeas, coconut milk, tomato paste and salt. Stir and cook over medium-high heat for about 10 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and add the lime juice and tablespoon of coconut flour, stir and let sit for about 5 minutes before serving.
  • Serve immediately (I added some chopped fresh cilantro on top). It's great with rice, naan and pita bread. Store leftovers in the fridge in an airtight container for about 5-7 days.
