Ingredients
  

1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed

1 can (14 oz) coconut milk (full-fat for creaminess)

1 tablespoon coconut oil (or any vegetable oil)

1 medium onion, finely chopped

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated

1 tablespoon curry powder (adjust to taste)

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 teaspoon turmeric powder

1 can (14 oz) diced tomatoes

1 cup vegetable broth (low sodium)

1 tablespoon soy sauce or tamari

1 cup fresh spinach or kale, roughly chopped

Salt & pepper to taste

Fresh cilantro, for garnish

Lime wedges, for serving

Instructions
 

Sauté the Aromatics: In a large skillet or saucepan, heat the coconut oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for another minute until fragrant.

    Spice it Up: Add the curry powder, ground cumin, and turmeric to the pan, stirring for about 30 seconds to release the spices' aromas.

      Create the Base: Pour in the diced tomatoes, vegetable broth, and soy sauce. Stir to combine, scraping the bottom of the pan to incorporate all flavors. Allow the mixture to simmer for about 5 minutes.

        Add Coconut Milk and Chickpeas: Reduce the heat to low, then stir in the coconut milk and chickpeas. Allow the curry to simmer gently for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly.

          Incorporate Greens: Stir in the chopped spinach or kale, allowing it to wilt into the curry for about 3-5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

            Serve and Garnish: Remove from heat, garnish with fresh cilantro, and serve hot with lime wedges on the side. This dish pairs beautifully with basmati rice or naan.
