Ingredients
-
2 cups cooked chickpeas (1 - 15 oz can)
-
1/2 lb fresh spinach.
-
1 yellow onion.
-
1 cup coriander.
-
1 tbsp grated green chilies.
-
1 tsp turmeric powder.
-
1 tsp grated ginger.
-
1/2 tsp chilly flakes.
-
4 clove of garlic (grated).
-
1/2 cup Sundried tomatoes.
-
1 - 14 oz can Coconut milk.
-
1 whole lemon.
-
1 tbsp coconut oil.
-
salt to taste.
Directions
-
Take a pan and heat on low-medium heat add the oil, followed by the onions and a good pinch of salt.
-
Let the onions sweat for about 10 minutes or until translucent
-
Add the garlic and ginger and let cook for another minute or so.
-
Add the sun-dried tomatoes, lemon zest and chili flakes, cook for another minute or so.
-
Add the chickpeas and stir to coat in the tomato mixture.
-
At this point, turn up the heat slightly and sort of fry the chickpeas a bit. Keep an eye on them though so they don't scorch.
-
Turn the heat down slightly and start to add the spinach.
-
Add the coconut milk and bring to a simmer, stir to combine and then add the ground ginger and a bit of the reserved lemon juice.
-
Taste for seasoning. Add more lemon juice, salt and/or pepper as needed.
-
Once everything has heated through, serve immediately.
-
The spinach will start to lose its color and it won't look as nice.
-
Serve it with brown rice or any grain of your choice.
