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

This dish is so delicious! I didn't have Garam Marsala so I used allspice. My family loves it! Also added some leftover diced chicken. Will definitely make again!

Hey Carina!
I don’t know if you remember me from my YouTube days but I just wanted to pop on here and say that I love your recipes! My family and I LOVE your Chocolate Salted Caramel Tart and I just tried your Coconut Chickpea Curry last night and it was AMAZING!

The coconut cream is different than coconut milk? Can you use coconut milk or will the sauce be to thin?

Love this recipe. Simple list of ingredients and easy steps to follow. The curry dish looks just like your video and tastes yummy!
Would have loved to have more sauce for the bread.
