Simple Chickpea Curry
3 cans chickpeas, rinsed
1 TB vegetable oil
1/2 onion, diced
2 TB fresh grated turmeric (or 1 TB dried turmeric)
1 TB ginger, grated
1 TB garlic, minced
2 TB cilantro stems, chopped
1 tsp cumin seeds
1 tsp coriander seeds
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
3 cracked cardamom pods
1 can fire diced tomatoes
1 can coconut milk
1 bay leaf
Vegetable stock or water as needed
Salt as needed
Heat vegetable oil in small stock pot on medium high heat. Saute onion with a pinch of salt until browned. Add turmeric, ginger, garlic, cilantro stems, cumin, coriander, red pepper flakes, and cardamom pods until fragrant, about 3-4 minutes. Add in tomatoes, coconut milk, and bay leaf. Thin as needed to allow sauce to come to a simmer. Simmer 20-30 minutes. Using an immersion blender, puree sauce until smooth. Salt as needed. Add chickpeas and mix. Garnish with cilantro, serve with roti, naan, or rice. Or in a bathtub! It's that good ;)
