Chickpea Curry
This currytastes just like Indian curry you get from restaurants.
I really mean that.
It has great layers of flavour.Real punchy flavours.
And its made from scratch no curry pastes here!
The roots of this particular curry is Trinidad in the Caribbean.
But it really tastes just like Indian curries (the tomato based ones, not the creamy ones).
I dont know if youve ever made Indian curries at home before, but I have.
And therein lies the reason why I am obsessed with this.
Its made with spices you could get from your local supermarket.
And just as much flavour.
This Chickpea curry is slightly adapted from a recipe by Imma fromImmaculate Bites, an African-Caribbean food blog.
Until I came across Immas site, I actually didnt know that much about Caribbean cuisine.
Traditions brought to the region by the population.
For me, these are standard pantry spices and Im betting I am not the only one!
The Curry Powder
The main spice used is curry powder.
Other recipes that use curry powder
Dont feel restricted to just use curry powder in Indian-style curries.
Same sauce, but made with vegetables instead of chickpeas and potato.
What to serve with Chickpea Curry
Rice is essential to soak up all that sauce preferablybasmati rice.
If you want to go all out, serve it withCoconut Rice.
If you want to cut back on the carbs, trycauliflower rice.
Also, adollop of yogurtgoes nicely the fresh cool tang tempers the spiciness and adds a touch of creaminess.
Otherwise, these yeast-freeEasy Soft Flatbreadsare simpler and taste just like naan.
