1 can (14 oz) coconut milk

1 cup vegetable broth

1 medium onion, finely chopped

3 cloves garlic, minced

1-inch piece fresh ginger, grated

1 bell pepper (any color), diced

2 cups fresh spinach (or kale)

2 tablespoons curry powder

1 teaspoon turmeric powder

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 teaspoon coriander powder

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

Cooked rice or quinoa (for serving)

Juice of 1 lime (optional)

Instructions
 

Sauté Aromatics: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 5 minutes until translucent. Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for an additional minute until fragrant.

    Add Vegetables and Spices: Add the diced bell pepper to the pot and sauté for another 3 minutes. Sprinkle in the curry powder, turmeric, ground cumin, and coriander powder. Stir well to coat the vegetables in the spices, cooking for another 1-2 minutes.

      Combine Main Ingredients: Add the drained chickpeas, coconut milk, and vegetable broth to the pot. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 10-15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

        Add Greens: Stir in the fresh spinach (or kale) and simmer for another 2-3 minutes until the greens are wilted and tender. Season the curry with salt, pepper, and lime juice (if using) to taste.

          Serve: Remove from heat. Serve the creamy coconut chickpea curry over cooked rice or quinoa. Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro for a burst of freshness.
