Chickpea Curry (Vegan -Pressure Cooker) image

A few minor changes to suit taste, based on a recipe by Suzanne Gibbs in her book "the Pressure Cooker". A super easy vegan cury that's great served with pappadums and rice or naan breads (if you can have wheat). Gluten-free and vegan. A mild recipe....add extra spices in if you like a warmer curry. Kids and meat-lovers will enjoy this one. The original recipe calls for 2 potatoes. This recipe uses cooked chickpeas as the addition of salt and acidic tomatoes inhibits the cooking of beans

Time 35m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

8 teaspoons olive oil
4 teaspoons cumin seeds
1 large onion, finely sliced
4 teaspoons crushed garlic (extra if you want more garlic flavour)
2 teaspoons ground coriander
2 teaspoons garam masala (extra for a spicier dish)
2 teaspoons ground turmeric
3 cups cooked chickpeas (roughly 29.5 ounces in total) or 2 (420 g) cans chickpeas, rinsed well and drained (roughly 29.5 ounces in total)
2 (400 g) cans diced tomatoes (roughly 28 ounces in total)
3 large potatoes, peeled and cut into cubes
1/4 teaspoon salt (add more to taste if desired)
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/2 cup water
fresh cilantro stem, as garnish (cilantro also known as coriander)

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in the pressure cooker over high heat. Cook the cumin seeds for approx 30 seconds or until they start to crackle.
  • Add the sliced onion and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes. The onion should be golden and soft.
  • Reduce the heat and stir in the garlic and other spices.
  • Add all remaining ingredients (except garnish).
  • Close and lock the lid. Bring to high pressure over high heat. Reduce heat to stabilise the pressure and cook for 15 minutes.
  • Release pressure and serve with a sprig of coriander or a sprinkle of parsley. Serve with steamed basmati rice, naan or pappadums.
  • NOTE: to cook dried beans. Overnight soak, drain water, place into pressure cooker, cover with fresh water and cook on low pressure for 10 minutes. I soaked 2 cups dried chickpeas and result was a little over 4 cups cooked beans. Canned/tinned chickpeas can be used if desired- be sure to drain and wash them well.
