Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Cook Onion

    • Coconut Oil
    • Red Onion
    • Pinch of Salt

    In a large pan, heat the coconut oil over medium-high heat. Add the red onion with a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring frequently, until the onion is softened and starting to brown.

  2. Add Ginger, Garlic & Spices

    • Garlic
    • Ginger
    • Garam Masala
    • Tumeric
    • Black Pepper
    • Cayenne Pepper
    • Rest of Salt

    Reduce the heat to medium. Add the garlic and ginger; stir and cook for 60 seconds or until fragrant. Stir in the garam masala, turmeric, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and salt. Cook for 30 seconds more to toast the spices.

  3. Add Tomatoes, Coconut Milk & Chickpeas

    • Tomatoes
    • Coconut Milk
    • Chickpeas

    Add the tomatoes to the pan and stir well. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, for about 3-5 minutes or until the tomatoes are starting to break down and dry up a little bit. Stir in the coconut milk and chickpeas. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low.

  4. Simmer

    • Lime Juice
    • Salt to taste
    • Cilantro

    Simmer the coconut chickpea curry for about 10 minutes or until reduced slightly. Stir in the fresh lime juice. Season to taste with additional salt (I used about another 1/2 teaspoon at this point). Serve hot, over rice or other accompaniments of choice, and garnished with chopped fresh cilantro.
