Description

A simple, flavorful curry made with pumpkin and chickpeas.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp grated fresh ginger
  • 1 tsp curry powder
  • 1/2 tsp turmeric powder
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (optional)
  • 1 (15 oz) can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
  • 1 (15 oz) can pumpkin puree (not pie filling)
  • 1 (13.5 oz) can full-fat coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup vegetable broth
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat the coconut oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
  2. Add the chopped onion and cook until soft, about 5 minutes.
  3. Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Add the curry powder, turmeric, and cayenne pepper (if using). Cook for 30 seconds, stirring constantly.
  5. Add the rinsed chickpeas, pumpkin puree, coconut milk, and vegetable broth to the pot. Stir well to combine.
  6. Bring the mixture to a simmer. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  8. Season with salt and pepper to your taste.
  9. Serve hot, garnished with fresh cilantro.

Notes

  • Serve this curry over rice or with naan bread.
  • For a smoother texture, you can blend a portion of the curry before adding the chickpeas back in.
