- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium white onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon garam masala
- 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
- cayenne and freshly-ground black pepper, to taste
- 2 (15-ounce) cans chickpeas, rinsed and drained
- 1 (15-ounce) can coconut milk
- 1 (15-ounce) can fire-roasted diced tomatoes
- 1 large handful fresh baby spinach
- 1 tablespoon freshly-squeezed lemon juice, plus extra lemon wedges for serving
- chopped fresh cilantro, for topping
Steps
Heat oil in a large stockpot or sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and sauté for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened. Add the garlic, grated ginger, garam masala, salt, cumin, turmeric, a pinch of cayenne, and a few twists of black pepper and sauté for 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
Add the chickpeas, coconut milk, diced tomatoes and stir to combine. Continue cooking until the sauce reaches a simmer. Reduce heat to medium-low to maintain the simmer, and cook for 5 to 10 minutes.
Add the baby spinach and lemon and stir until the spinach has wilted.
Taste and season the sauce with additional salt, pepper and/or lemon juice, if needed.
Serve. Serve warm over rice, garnished with fresh cilantro and extra lemon wedges. Enjoy!
