Easy Vegan Chickpea Curry with Potatoes I love to cook when I have the time. I don't cook French or Mexican food with exact recipes. I just go to the supermarket and buy things that look good, and I mix it all together and invent something. Ninety-five percent of the time, I'm lucky. Sometimes not so lucky, and I say, 'Let's go out to dinner.'

Ingredients
- Jasmine rice
- 1 small onion, cut into stripes
- 2 small potatoes, cut into small pieces
- 1 large carrot, cut into slices
- 1 teaspoon curry powder
- 1 teaspoon red curry paste (optional) adjust if the curry paste you're using is very spicy, mine was very mild
- 1 cup full fat coconut milk
- 1/2 cup vegetable broth
- 1 1/2 cups cooked chickpeas
- 1 cup frozen peas
- salt
- black pepper
- cashews (optional)
- fresh cilantro (optional)
Instructions
- Cook the Jasmine rice according to the instructions on the package.
- In a large pan, heat some oil and sauté the onion for 2-3 minutes. Then add the potatoes and cook for another 3 minutes. Stir in the red curry paste and the curry and cook for another minute.
- Add the coconut milk, vegetable broth, carrot, chickpeas, and peas and cook for about 20 minutes.
- Season with salt and pepper and serve with cashews and cilantro.
Notes
- I included potatoes in the original recipe. However, if you want the vegan curry to be quicker, you can just leave them out. I make this vegan chickpea curry all the time and I think about half the time I’m not using potatoes. Cook the curry for about 15 minutes if you’re not using potatoes.
- Make sure to use canned full fat coconut milk for this recipe. I had some people making it with boxed coconut milk (like almond milk), which didn’t work out. You need the canned full fat coconut milk for a creamy curry.
- Serve the curry with brown rice for a healthier version.
- If you’re using potatoes for this vegan curry, make sure to cut them into small cubes. Otherwise the recipe will take longer.
- I used frozen peas for my vegan curry, but of course you can also use fresh green peas.
