Ingredients:
1/2 red onion chopped
2 cloves garlic
1.5 tsp fresh ginger
olive oil
3 tbs curry paste
14 oz can of diced tomatoes
1 c water
14 oz can of chickpeas
1 lb of fresh baby spinach leaves
fresh cilantro chopped
Salt and pepper to taste

1. In a skillet heat oil and saute onion, garlic and ginger until golden
2. Add curry paste and mix all together. Cook a few more mins.
3. Add diced tomatoes, water and chickpeas and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer letting sauce thicken up a little about 10 mins.
4. Right at the end add spinach and cilantro. Cook just till wilted. 1 to 2 mins.
Serve over some Jasmine Rice with some Naan.

MMMMMmmmm so delicious and simple!

    This looks and sounds absolutely delicious- I’m bookmarking it for when I go home- I loveee curry chana (what I call chick peas, my family is West Indian) and this sounds like a great spin on it

    Yum…. I might just have to make this for dinner tonight!. I actually just finished off an amazing quinoa and black bean salad that I made yesterday morning. You should try it out. I got the recipe from the vegan blog http://www.ohsheglows.com . I half ed the recipe though because I knew I couldn’t eat all of it in 2 days.
