Ingredients

  • 2 cans chickpeas - 15 ounces per can, rinsed and drained
  • 1 can coconut milk - (13.5oz)
  • 2 teaspoon garam masala
  • 2 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon ginger powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes
  • 1 medium-size onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 10 oz fresh baby spinach, uncooked - (10 cups, loosely packed - you can use 10 oz frozen spinach instead of fresh)
  • salt
  • 4 lemon wedges - (optional)
  • Fresh coriander - (optional)

Instructions

  • Heat the oil in a large pan. When the oil is smoking hot lower the heat and add the spices.
  • After a few seconds, add the chopped onions and the minced garlic.
  • Once the onion and garlic are golden brown (around a minute), add the chickpeas and the coconut milk. Add salt to taste.
  • Cook for 5 minutes, then add the washed fresh spinach, stir well and cover.
  • Let the spinach wilt for a couple of minutes. And it's ready to serve.
  • You can add a splash of fresh lemon juice and some freshly chopped coriander. But it's not essential.
  • This curry is delicious with basmati rice or naan bread.

Notes

How to store: You can freeze this curry for up to 3 months (although I usually try to consume it within one month). Or you can keep it in the fridge for up to 3-4 days.
