Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 tablespoon curry powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 medium sized onion chopped (approximately 1 cup)
  • 1 ½ teaspoons ginger minced
  • 3 cloves of garlic minced
  • 1 15 oz. can diced tomatoes
  • 1 15 oz. can unsweetened coconut milk (or 1 cup plain whole milk yogurt)
  • ¾ cup vegetable broth
  • A small head of cauliflower cut into 1-inch florets (approximately 3-4 cups)
  • 1 large or 2 small sweet potato, cubed (approximately 2 cups)
  • 1 cup cooked chickpeas
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¾ cup green peas frozen or fresh (no need to thaw if using frozen)
  • 1 tablespoon cilantro chopped - more as a garnish
  • A handful of salted cashews as garnish optional

Instructions

  • Heat oil in a large heavy bottom pan (such as a Dutch Oven) over medium heat. Add in the ground coriander, ground cumin, curry powder, ground turmeric, ground cinnamon, and onion. Sauteé, stirring constantly, until onion is softened, 4-5 minutes.
  • Add in the ginger and cook for 1 minute or until fragrant.
  • Stir in the garlic and cook for 30 seconds. At this point, it should be a thick mixture that looks like it needs some liquid.
  • Add in the tomatoes, coconut milk, vegetable broth, cauliflower florets, sweet potatoes, chickpeas, and salt. Give it a gentle stir.
  • Put the lid on and bring it to a boil. Once it comes to a boil, turn the heat down to medium low and let it simmer for 20-25 minutes or until sweet potatoes are softened.
  • Stir in the green peas and cilantro.
  • Garnish with cilantro and chopped cashews (if using). Serve over rice.
