This simple chickpea curry assembles quickly and results in a flavourful, inexpensive meal that provides a complete protein.
2 540-ml cans chickpeas, drained and rinsed
400-ml can coconut milk
1 onion, finely chopped
2 tomatoes, chopped
1 jalapeño, seeded and finely chopped
2-3 garlic cloves, crushed
2 tsp fresh ginger
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp garam masala
Combine all ingredients in a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker. Cover and cook on low for 4 to 6 hr or until bubbling and stew-like.
Kitchen tip: In place of the coconut milk, you can use 1½ cups chicken or vegetable stock.
