Catering to vegan guests? Our deceptively easy vegan curry is a guaranteed to satisfy. Equally delicious served fresh, or batch cooked for a moreish midweek meal, this simple vegan curry is a creamy, sumptuous delight.

What you'll need:

400g chickpeas
400ml coconut milk
1x onion, chopped
1x pepper, chopped
400g of spinach
2x sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped
400g passata
1x fresh tomato, chopped
2 tsp extra virgin oil
½ tsp mustard seeds
½ tsp cumin seeds
5 tsp curry powder
3 tsp red chili powder
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 tsp lemon juice
Fresh coriander leaves, chopped

Method:

Heat the oil in a pan and add the mustard seeds and cumin seeds.
After a few minutes, add the chopped onion and pepper and let them cook away for 10 minutes on medium heat.
Then add the sweet potato and the rest of the herbs, spices and seasonings (dried coriander, curry powder, chili powder, salt and ground pepper).
Drain and add the chickpeas to cook for 5 minutes.
Pour in the passata and add the chopped tomato with some water and bring to a boil.
Reduce the heat to a simmer, then cover and cook for 10-15 minutes.
Remove the lid and cook for another 15-20 minutes, or until the sweet potato is cooked through and your curry sauce has thickened.
Stir in the coconut milk and cook for a couple of minutes before adding the spinach and cooking until wilted.
Turn off the heat and add the lemon juice, garnishing with some chopped fresh coriander.
Serve and enjoy your spinach and chickpeas curry! (Before researching your next vegan curry recipe!)
