How to Make Chickpea Curry For Two
- Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a deep saucepan over medium heat. Add 1/2 medium onion, 1/2 cup sliced mushrooms, and 2 cloves minced garlic.
- Fry the mixture, stirring occasionally, until the onions are caramelized and softened (about 5-7 minutes).
- Add 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon cumin, 1/2 teaspoon coriander, 1/4 teaspoon turmeric, and 1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon red chili powder (adjust to your spice preference).
- Mix well for 1 minute, then add 1/2 medium tomato, finely chopped.
- Cook the sauce, stirring occasionally, until it begins to thicken (about 5 minutes).
- Add 1/4 cup of water and stir to combine.
- Add 1 can (15 ounces) chickpeas, drained and rinsed. Mix well.
- Gently mash a few chickpeas with the back of a spoon while cooking to create a thicker, creamier sauce.
- Cover the saucepan and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger and 1/2 teaspoon garam masala.
- Cook for another minute, allowing the flavors to meld.
- Serve hot over cooked rice. Garnish with fresh cilantro (optional).
