Chickpea Curry with Greens
Easy, quick and incredibly flavorful you'll want to serve this curry all year long. It's great with kale, swiss chard, collards or spinach. So good!
Ingredients
- 1 bunch spinach or kale or swiss chard
- 1 tablespoons curry powder more or less to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 cloves garlic grated or pressed
- 1 small knob fresh ginger about a tablespoon grated
- 1 tablespoon avocado oil or vegetable oil
- 1 medium Onion chopped
- 1 14 oz can coconut milk
- 1 15 oz can chickpeas garbanzo beans
- 1 small lime
Instructions
- Wash the spinach (or kale or swiss chard)
- Mix the curry powder, cumin, paprika, salt and pepper in a small bowl
- Place the grated ginger and garlic in a small bowl. I often grab a peeled, frozen hunk of ginger from the freezer - grates beautifully!
- Heat the oil in a large sauté pan, add the onion and cook until translucent - about 3 minutes
- Add the garlic and ginger and sauté for 30 seconds being careful not to burn
- Stir in the spice mixture and cook until toasted - about a minute
- Add the chickpeas and cook until dry - about 2 minutes
- Add the coconut milk and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook until the curry thickens a bit and reduces - about 5 minutes. Taste and add more spice as desired
- Add the greens
- Cook until the greens are wilted and soft - it will smell amazing!
- Squeeze in the lime, stir and taste - YUM!
- Serve with rice, quinoa or just by itself. Top with a few sprigs of cilantro and enjoy!
