CLEAN-EATING COCONUT CHICKPEA CURRY
My husband has cancer and we eat extra clean and buy all organic ingredients. This vegan curry has lots of cancer-fighting ingredients like turmeric, ginger, garlic, and onion. You can make it in bulk and freeze. Add some greens like spinach, Swiss chard, or kale towards the end of the cooking time if you like. I serve this over a little bit of rice but it tastes great with pita as well or on its own.

Steps:
- Rinse chickpeas under cold running water. Place in a bowl and cover with at least 4 cups of cold water. Soak for 12 to 24 hours.
- Drain chickpeas and place in a large pot. Pour in enough water to cover chickpeas by 2 inches. Add halved onion and bring to a rolling boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to a high simmer. Cook for a few minutes until a foam forms at the top. Skim off the foam and cook, covered, until chickpeas are soft, 40 to 60 minutes.
- Remove from heat, season with salt, and set aside. Do not drain so chickpeas don't dry out.
- Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add chopped onion and ginger. Season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 more minute. Stir in turmeric, cumin, and red pepper flakes.
- Drain chickpeas, reserving 2 cups of the cooking liquid. Add drained chickpeas to the sauteed onion mixture and stir until well coated with the spices. Cook until chickpeas are a little bit crisp, stirring occasionally, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Add 2 cups of chickpea cooking liquid and coconut milk to the pot. Bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until curry has thickened to your desired consistency and flavors have started to come together, 40 to 60 minutes. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
- Divide curry amongst bowls and top with yogurt and cilantro.

CURRIED CHICKPEAS WITH CILANTRO
I love this recipe. It is my own creation, informed by dal and curry recipes I've made in the past. It's pretty easy, and great if you are craving Indian food. You can use canned or cooked chickpeas and adjust the spices to your preferences. The cooking time doesn't include the time required to soak and cook dry chickpeas. I don't like to use salt in dishes, but you may choose to add salt to enhance the flavor.

- Add chickpeas. Stir and cook until heated through, about 1-2 minutes.

COCONUT CURRIED CHICKPEAS, CAULIFLOWER, AND SPINACH
This is my FAVORITE recipe!!!! It's healthy, ridiculously tasty, and takes less than 15 minutes to cook. It has the added bonus of being vegetarian, but it's just so good that I'll feed it to anyone and everyone! I got the recipe from Vegetarian Times, the original may be found at http://www.vegetariantimes.com/recipes/7747. We've eaten this with rice, wheat tortillas, or by itself. Basically we just can't stop eating it! Just a warning to all those gringos out there, it's a little bit spicy. ;) In case zaar can't find all the ingredients, the basic nutritional info per serving is: 34 cal/14g protein/13g total fat/11g fiber/46g carbs

Steps:
- Chop all ingredients that require chopping and set them aside (everything cooks pretty quickly). For easier assembly, put the garlic and onion in one bowl, the carrots and cabbage in another bowl, and the spinach and cilantro in another bowl.
- In a wok, boil 2 1/2 quarts (10 cups) lightly salted water on high.
- Add cauliflower and cook two minutes. Drain and set cauliflower aside.
- Heat 1 Tbs oil in wok over medium-high heat. Add garlic, onion and 1 tsp salt. Stir-fry one minute.
- Add curry powder and stir-fry one minute.
- Add 1/2 Tbs oil. Add carrots, cabbage, and 1 tsp salt. Stir-fry two minutes.
- Slowly drizzle broth around outer edge of vegetables, steering clear of the center. Cover and cook two minutes.
- Stir in chickpeas and coconut milk and cook, uncovered, for two and a half minutes.
- Add spinach, cauliflower, and cilantro. Cook, stirring, just until spinach begins to wilt (about one minute).
- Remove from heat and serve.
Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh chickpeas, coconut milk, cilantro, and spices will give your curry the best flavor.
- Don't be afraid to adjust the spices: The amount of curry powder, cumin, and garam masala can be adjusted to your taste. If you like a spicy curry, add more cayenne pepper.
- Cook the chickpeas until they are tender: Overcooked chickpeas will be mushy, so be careful not to cook them for too long.
- Use a good quality coconut milk: Canned coconut milk is fine, but if you can find fresh coconut milk, it will give your curry a richer flavor.
- Serve the curry with your favorite sides: Rice, quinoa, or naan bread are all good choices.
Conclusion:
This curried chickpeas recipe is a delicious and easy-to-make vegan dish. The chickpeas are simmered in a flavorful coconut-cilantro broth, and the curry is packed with spices. This curry is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. Serve it with your favorite sides, such as rice, quinoa, or naan bread.
