Coconut Curry

by: Pinch of Yum

Prep: 5 mins. Cook: 10 mins. Total: 15 mins.

Yield: 3-4 servings

Ingredients:

1 can coconut milk

2 tablespoons red curry paste

2 small heads broccoli (and/or other veggies of choice)

1 can chickpeas, rinsed and drained

½ tablespoon cornstarch dissolved in 2 tablespoons cold water

Optional: minced garlic or onion

Directions:

Sauté broccoli (and onion/garlic if you're using it) in a tablespoon of oil. After a few minutes, add the coconut milk and let simmer for 5-8 minutes. The broccoli should soften but still be tender-crisp.

Add the curry paste to the pan and whisk it until it combines with the coconut milk. Add the chickpeas.

Bring to a slight boil and add the cornstarch. Boil for about a minute, then reduce heat and let cool slightly. Sauce will thicken as the mixture cools.
