Golden Coconut Chickpea Curry

This is the weeknight curry to memorize. Chickpeas simmer in a golden coconut sauce fragrant with ginger, garlic, and turmeric until thick and spoonable. It is naturally vegan, deeply satisfying, and even better the next day.

  1. Soften

    Cook onion in oil until soft, then add ginger, garlic, curry powder, and turmeric and toast for 1 minute until fragrant.

  2. Simmer

    Add chickpeas and coconut milk. Simmer 20 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats a spoon.

  3. Finish

    Season with salt and a squeeze of lime. Serve over rice with cilantro.

Cook's notes

  • Toasting the spices before adding liquid deepens the flavor.
  • Mash some chickpeas to thicken the sauce naturally.

Make it your own

  • Wilt in spinach at the end.
  • Add a diced sweet potato with the coconut milk.
