Chickpea And Kale Thai Coconut Curry Recipes

CHICKPEA AND KALE CURRY

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium. Add bell pepper and onion; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add kale and garlic; cook, stirring often, until kale is softened, about 2 minutes. Stir in curry powder, ginger, salt, and pepper. Add peanut butter; cook, stirring constantly, 30 seconds. Stir in coconut milk and chickpeas, and cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce starts to thicken slightly, 12 to 14 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in lime juice.
• Place 1/2 cup cooked quinoa in a bowl. Top with 1 cup curry mixture and cilantro sprigs. Refrigerate or freeze remaining quinoa and curry for later use.

KALE WITH CHANA & COCONUT

Steps:

• Heat the butter in a deep frying pan, add the onion, then soften gently for 5 mins. Turn up the heat and add the ginger and spices; fry for 2 mins until fragrant. Stir in the tomato purée.
• Add the kale, chickpeas, stock and two-thirds of the coconut, stir well, then cover the pan. Bring to a simmer and let the kale steam for 10 mins until very well wilted. Mix in the yogurt and chutney, then season to taste - don't boil once the yogurt has gone in. Remove the pan from the heat, and leave it covered to stay warm.
• Heat the oil in a small saucepan. When it's hot, add the garlic (and curry leaves, if using) and sizzle for 30 secs-1 min until the garlic begins to turn golden. Spoon the oil, garlic and curry leaves over the chickpeas and kale, then finish with the remaining coconut.
