Chickpea and Cashew Korma Recipe: Veggie

Ingredients
Method

Ingredients:

2 tbsp vegetable oil
1 red onion, finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, crushed
1 tsp turmeric
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp grated ginger
1/2 tsp mild chilli powder
1 sweet potato, peeled and cut into 2cm cubes
1 small cauliflower, cut into florets
1 red pepper, cut into pieces
1 yellow pepper, cut into pieces
1 standard can of chickpeas, drained
100g roasted unsalted cashew nuts
1 1/2 vegetarian stock cubes, diluted in
1 lt boiling water
100ml coconut milk
150g frozen peas
30g fresh coriander
1 tsp of cornflour (to thicken the sauce, if liked)
200ml low fat natural yoghurt
boiled or fried rice, to serve

method:

Gently heat the oil in a large pan and fry the onion. After five minutes add the garlic and continue to cook for another two minutes.
Add the turmeric, paprika, ginger and chilli and cook for another two minutes.
Add the sweet potato, cauliflower, peppers, chickpeas, cashew nuts, stock and coconut milk then bring to the boil.
Reduce the heat and simmer for 20 minutes stirring occasionally. If you would prefer a thicker sauce, mix 1 tsp of cornflour with a little water to make a paste. Add this to the korma, gently stir in and cook for five minutes.
Add the peas and most of the coriander, saving a little for garnish, and cook for five minutes.
Add salt and pepper to taste and serve the curry with a spoonful of natural yoghurt and coriander to garnish. Enjoy with rice.
