Quantities are estimated based on standard recipes for your convenience. The actual ingredients used in this video are accurate.
coconut milk
🥗Healthier: light coconut milk
💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch
Light coconut milk reduces calories while maintaining creaminess.
naan
🥗Healthier: whole wheat pita
💰Cheaper: store-bought flatbread
Whole wheat pita adds fiber and is often cheaper.
Dice two medium-sized onions.
Finely mince six cloves of garlic.
Peel the skin from a small piece of ginger root and slice 2 inches into thin pieces, then mince.
Squeeze the juice from two limes.
Chop a large bunch of fresh cilantro.
Roughly chop 10 oz of baby spinach.
Drain four 15 oz cans of chickpeas and rinse under cold water.
Add 1/4 cup of vegetable oil to a large heavy-bottomed pot and add all the diced onions.
Stir and sauté the onions over medium heat for 10 minutes until softened.
Add the minced ginger and garlic and stir for 1 minute.
Add 2 tablespoons of curry powder, 1 tablespoon of garam masala, 2 teaspoons of chili powder, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of black pepper. Stir to combine and allow the spices to bloom for 1 minute.
Pour in 1/4 cup of water if the seasonings are too dry and stir to incorporate.
Pour in a 28 oz can of crushed tomatoes and stir to combine, bringing to a simmer for 5 minutes.
Add the drained rinsed chickpeas and stir.
Add two 14 oz cans of coconut milk and stir until fully incorporated.
Allow the curry to come to a boil and then simmer on low for 15 minutes, stirring periodically.
Add in the chopped spinach and stir until just wilted.
With the stove heat off, add in a heaping cup of cilantro and stir again.
Pour in the juice of two limes and stir one last time to ensure everything is fully combined.
Scoop hot basmati rice into a bowl and ladle a few spoonfuls of chickpea curry on top.
