Instructions
  1. Heat the oil over medium heat in a medium sized frypan.

  3. Add the spices and crushed garlic to the pan and cook for about 30 seconds over low heat or until very fragrant.
  4. Add the chopped tomatoes and cook for about 5 minutes over medium heat until it has formed a thick paste. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Add the chickpeas and coconut cream. Stir until everything is evenly combined and simmer for 10 minutes or until thickened slightly.

Canned tomatoes can be used instead of fresh, you'll need a 400g / 15oz can.
This curry reheats and freezes perfectly.

My partner said he would add more heat to it ,I like it as it is, I added two chestnut mushrooms, I added a desert spoon tomato sauce just to slightly sweeten it. Thankyou carina I have cooked loads of your recipes 10/10.
