Ingredients
- 2 tablespoon oil or coconut oil
- 1/2 large onion, diced
- 2 teaspoons fresh grated ginger
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 jalapeño, seeded and minced
- 1/2 teaspoon turmeric
- 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 1/2 tablespoon curry powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 medium yukon potatoes, cubed
- 3 carrots, diced
- 1/2 cup ground cashews, see notes
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cup tomato sauce
- 2 cups chopped cauliflower
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 1 15 ounce can garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 15 ounce can coconut milk (light is OK)
- 1/2 cup chopped cilantro, plus more for garnish
- Cooked Rice, to serve
Instructions
- Heat the oil in a dutch oven or large skillet pan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add fresh grated ginger and garlic and cook an additional 1 minute, taking care not to burn the garlic.
- Add the jalapeño, turmeric, smoked paprika, chili powder, curry powder and salt. Stir and cook for 1-2 minutes until spices are fragrant.
- Stir in the potatoes, carrots, cashews, tomato sauce and water. Increase heat to medium-high, and cook another 15 minutes until potatoes are tender. Continue to stir frequently, so not to burn the mixture.
- Add the cauliflower, peas, garbanzo beans and coconut milk. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for an additional 20-25 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Coconut milk will curdle, so make sure your heat is turned down to a low setting.
- Stir in cilantro and serve over rice with naan, if desired!
Notes
To grind the cashews, place them in the base of a food processor and pulse until the cashews are finely ground, but not turned into nut butter. I use raw, unsalted cashews.
