Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Savory Chickpea Curry with Coconut and Spices.
Step 1
Start by melting the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Once it's melted, toss in the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sautรฉ them together for about five minutes, or until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant. This is where the magic begins!
Step 2
Next, sprinkle in the curry powder, garam masala, paprika, sugar, ginger, turmeric, salt, and pepper. Stir everything together and let the spices toast for about three to four minutes. This step enhances their flavors and fills your kitchen with an irresistible aroma!
Step 3
Now, it's time to add the star ingredients! Mix in the drained garbanzo beans, chopped potatoes, coconut milk, chopped tomato, milk, ketchup, sour cream, and the chicken bouillon cubes. Stir everything well to combine, and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat.
Step 4
Let the curry simmer for about 25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and cooked through. Stir occasionally to ensure nothing sticks to the bottom of the pan. As it simmers, the flavors will meld beautifully, creating a rich and creamy sauce.
Step 5
To finish off, stir in the ground almonds. This will help thicken the curry and add a lovely nutty flavor. If you prefer a thicker consistency, feel free to add more ground almonds until you reach your desired texture. Serve hot and enjoy!
How to Serve
Serve this delicious chickpea curry over a bed of fluffy rice or with warm naan bread. Garnish with fresh cilantro for an extra burst of flavor!
How to Store
