I was looking up recipes for all my chickpeas and found marry me chickpeas. I thought this is basically Chana masala without the seasoning.
Ingredients
– 6 cans chickpeas
– 1 Large yellow onion, diced
– 4 cloves garlic, diced
– thumb of ginger, diced
– 1 large can of crushed tomatoes
– 1 can of coconut milk
– 4-6 tbsp curry power (mix garam masala, tumeric, cumin, coriander, chili powder to taste)
– 1 brick of frozen spinach
– 2 tbsp ghee (sub olive oil if not available)
– 1 lemon juiced
Directions
1. Sweat ginger,onion, and garlic in ghee over medium -low heat until onions are translucent
2. Lower heat and toast curry powder briefly, careful not to burn.
3. Deglaze with a splash of water then add tomatoes.
4. Save one full can of chickpeas and drain liquid from the rest. Dump them all in plus the spinach and cover for medium heat
5. Once chickpeas have softened, add lemon juice and coconut milk.
Serve over rice with naan on the side.
