Ingredients
2 cups Cooked chickpeas if using cans, rinse
1 Onion chopped
3–4 cloves Garlic minced
1 tbsp Olive oil
1/2 Head organic green cabbage finely sliced
1/2 Cauliflower chopped, optional
2–3 tbsp Yellow curry powder
Lime wedges
Cilantro chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
1. Saut the chopped onion and minced garlic in olive oil until they are soft and fragrant. Mix in a generous pinch of salt.
2. Stir in the chickpeas, sliced green cabbage, and cauliflower. Cover and let cook for about 4 minutes.
3. Season with a bit more salt and the yellow curry powder. Add a tablespoon of water, stir well to coat the ingredients evenly, and cover again. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
4. Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro and a squeeze of fresh lime juice before serving.
Notes
Chop your cabbage into bite-sized pieces so it cooks evenly and is easy to eat in every spoonful.
Adjust the red pepper flakes to your personal preference. Start with a small pinch and add more if you like it spicier.
The curry is ready when the cabbage is tender and has softened considerably, readily absorbing the flavors of the broth.
If your curry seems too thick during simmering, you can add a little more vegetable broth or water, a quarter cup at a time, until it reaches your desired consistency.
