To make this 20-minute vegan curry even faster, buy precut veggies from the salad bar at the grocery store. To make it a full, satisfying dinner, serve over cooked brown rice. When shopping for simmer sauce, look for one with 400 mg of sodium or less and check the ingredient list for cream or fish sauce if you want to keep this vegan. If you like a spicy kick, add a few dashes of your favorite hot sauce at the end.

2 tablespoons coconut oil
1 medium red onion or yellow onion (diced)

sea salt & ground black pepper (to taste)
16 ounces canned chickpeas (drained & rinsed (454g))
3 garlic cloves (minced)

2 teaspoons coconut flour (OPTIONAL**)
1 small lime (juice of)

Steps:

  • In a deep pot over medium-high heat, add the coconut oil.

  • Add in the chickpeas, garlic, garam masala, curry powder and cumin. Stir to combine.
  • Add in the coconut milk and stir again. Add in the coconut flour which helps to slightly thicken the curry. Bring the curry to a boil, and then reduce to medium-low so that the mixture continues to simmer for 10 to 12 more minutes.
  • Taste the curry and season with salt and pepper if you desire. Remove the curry from the heat and squeeze a lime lightly over the top of the curry, stirring to combine. Don't skip this step!! Allow to cool slightly and then serve. Enjoy!
