Description

Chickpea Curry is one of my favorite dishes. It’s healthy, easy to prepare and it tastes just as good the next day for those who are busy and don’t have time for lots of cooking. Just sauté a chopped onion, add the spices, the chickpeas, incorporate coconut milk and voilà, it’s done! It’s that easy. Chickpea curry is cheap, and is definitely a crowd pleaser!

1 chopped onion
1 red pepper cut into strips
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 tablespoon curry powder
1/4 teaspoon crushed red peppers

1 can of (19oz) 540 ml chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1 can of (13,5 oz) 400 ml coconut milk
