#3

i am a bad blogger. i have a delicious recipe for a chickpea curry i made last night but no photograph.  i borrowed the recipe from a website but changed it around a lot so i claim it as my own.

ingredients:

4 medium potatoes, cubed (what i would do next time is 1 potato and the rest cauliflower)
2 tbsps oil
1 yellow onion, diced
2 tsp minced garlic
4 tsp curry powder
4 tsp garam masala
2 tsp ground ginger
2 tsp cumin
1 tsp of chopped jalapeno pepper
1 can of tomato paste
1 can coconut milk
1 can chickpeas
1 block of tofu; cubed

instructions:

1. Cook the potatoes (& cauliflower) and put aside once finished
2.  Mix the spices together minus the garlic and divide by half. 
3.  Cream together 3-4 tbsp of coconut milk and 1 tbsp of tomato paste. add in half the spices and some of the jalapeno pepper.  Mix with cubed tofu and grill using an appropriate pan (i got mine at IKEA for $14.99).
4. At the same time in another pan, saute onions and minced garlic in oil. Once cooked, add spices and cook for 2 mins. Add the rest of the coconut milk and tomato paste. Aswell as chickpeas, potatoes and the cooked tofu). Stir and let simmer until ready to eat.

*May I suggest brown basmati rice. That's how we ate it.
