Hi dear friends! Happy Monday!
I hope you all started you week off well. I got up and made myself a delicious bowl of oatmeal, then did some painting (yes, I actually do art stuff) and then lunch time was around already. I was really in a mood for some curry and I came up with this ONE-POT CHICKPEA CAULIFLOWER CURRY which turned out amazing. It was super thick, creamy and rich in taste. I highly recommend you to try it yourself!The two bases in this recipe are chickpeas and cauliflower. I love the combo of these two. I also added some corn which goes perfectly with it and spinach for some extra nutrients. We only have vegetables now so there’s still the curry sauce to come. It consists of vegetable broth, all sorts of spices and cornstarch to thicken it up.
When it comes to savoury meals I usually just go with my basics, for example rice, tofu and broccoli. This time I got a bit more creative and let me tell you something. This meal was BOMB. Like top of tops. Seriously SO good. Forget about everything you are doing right now and go make this recipe, you won’t regret it, you can come back and thank me later.

ONE-POT CHICKPEA CAULIFLOWER CURRY
Ingredients:
- 2 cups cauliflower florets
- 1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- ¾ cup corn
- 1 large onion
- 1 cup spinach (I used frozen)
- 2 tbsp curry paste
- 1 tbsp curry powder
- 1 tbsp smoked paprika
- 1 ½ cup vegetable broth
- 2-3 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tsp coconut oil
- salt and pepper to taste
- parsley (optional)
Method:
1/ Chop onion. Preheat a large pan and add to it coconut oil and onion. Sauté until onions are caramelized.
2/ To the same pan add cauliflower and sauté for about 4 minutes until cauliflower gets roasted feel to it.
3/ To that add chickpeas and corn. Sauté again.
4/ Add vegetable broth and spinach and bring to boil. When it’s boiling add curry paste, curry powder, smoked paprika, salt and pepper. Boil for around 4 minutes, then add cornstarch and mix until everything is evenly incorporated. Cook until sauce thickens to the desired consistency and all of the flavours are combined.
5/ Serve along with greens and rice (or grain of your choice). Sprinkle chopped parsley on top and enjoy!
I hope you enjoyed today's recipe! Have a wonderful week!
