- 1 12 ounce-can chickpeas drained
- 2 carrots medium-sized, cut into slices
- 1 red bell pepper cut into dices or slices
- 1 onion diced
- 1 ½ tablespoon ginger grated
- 3 garlic cloves minced
- 2 teaspoon avocado oil
- 1 ½ tablespoon red curry paste
- 2 teaspoon curry powder
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste optional
- 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
- ½ teaspoon ground cumin
- 14 oz coconut milk
- salt and pepper to taste
First, prepare the vegetables by rinsing and chopping them. Mince the garlic and grate the ginger.
Next, add avocado oil to a large pan or pot and preheat it over medium heat. Sauté the onion, garlic, ginger and carrot until the carrots start to soften a bit. Then, add the red bell pepper, tomato paste (optional), red curry paste, spices, and salt and pepper to the pot and sauté shortly.
Now, add the chickpeas and coconut milk, stir everything and let the curry simmer until the vegetables have softened. Add more salt and pepper to taste.
- I recommend serving the curry with rice or cauliflower rice.
- Depending on the result you aim for, skip the tomato paste and/or add less red curry paste for a mild curry.
