CURRIED CHICKPEA AND SUMMER VEGETABLE STEW



Curried Chickpea and Summer Vegetable Stew image

This dish packs so much flavour it's amazing. The first time I made this we had unexpected company and I have never had so many great comments. You can serve this over basmati rice, sliced pita wedges or top it with grilled chicken thighs. I couldn't find a red hot chile so I used a splash of red hot chile sauce. Try to use fresh tomato sauce if possible but you can use canned if you wish. I tried to double the recipe to save time but I wouldn't recommend it as there are too many vegetables to stir and you require a really big pot to do this. This came from the Fine Cooking magazine.
