Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C. Heat some oil on a large skillet.
  • Drizzle some oil on a baking tray. Place the chickpeas on one half of the baking tray and the sweet potato and courgette on the other half. Sprinkle over some salt and garlic granules. Roast for 20-25 minutes.
  • Fry the onion on medium heat until translucent.
  • Add in the garlic and ginger and fry until aromatic, before stirring in the Thai red curry paste and coat the onions in it.
  • Next stir in the water, coconut milk, curry powder, turmeric, peanut butter and soy sauce. Mix well to combine everything.
  • Remove the sweet potato and courgette from the oven and mix into the skillet. Remove the chickpeas from the oven too, if crispy enough for your liking at this point.
  • Leave to simmer for 20 minutes until the vegetables are fully cooked. Adding more water in if needed.
  • Meanwhile, boil the rice as the vegetables are simmering, If you’re in a hurry, use boil-in-the-bag rice.
  • Add in the chickpeas, juice of ½ lime and spinach. Mix through until spinach is fully wilted.
