Ingredients & Substitutions
I love using full-fat coconut coconut milk for that rich, creamy texture, but light coconut coconut milk works too if you're looking to cut back on fat. You can also swap out the chickpeas for tofu or tempeh if you want a different protein source. And remember, always check the curry paste to ensure it’s vegan; some brands sneak in non-vegan ingredients!
Tips & Notes
- •I like to keep some extra lime wedges on the side for a little kick when serving.
- •If you want to make it extra creamy, blend a portion of the curry and stir it back in.
Recipe Variations
- •Sometimes, I’ll throw in some leafy greens like spinach or kale in the last few minutes of cooking for an extra boost of nutrition.
- •If you want more heat, add a chopped chili or a dash of cayenne pepper when you add the curry paste.
Storage & Freezing
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Just reheat gently on the stove, adding a splash of water or broth if it’s thickened up too much.
