CURRIED CHICKPEA AND SUMMER VEGETABLE STEW
Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large, deep skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onion and cook, stirring frequently until soft and golden, about 15 minutes (reduce the heat to medium low, if necessary, to prevent the onion from burning). Stir in the ginger and garlic and cook for 2 minutes. Add the eggplant, yellow squash, zucchini, and 1/2 tsp. salt; stir to coat thoroughly. Cook over medium heat , stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are barely tender, 7 to 10 minutes. Stir in the garam masala, coriander, cumin, turmeric, chile, 1 tsp. salt, and a few grinds of pepper. Cook until the spices are fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour in the chickpeas and their liquid, the tomato sauce, coconut milk, and 2 Tbs. of the cilantro. Raise the heat to medium high and bring the stew to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium low and simmer, uncovered, until the eggplant and zucchini are completely tender but still hold their shape, and the sauce has thickened, 15 to 20 minutes. To serve, ladle the stew into shallow rimmed bowls and sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup cilantro and the toasted coconut (if using).
CURRIED CHICKPEA AND SUMMER VEGETABLE STEW
This dish packs so much flavour it's amazing. The first time I made this we had unexpected company and I have never had so many great comments. You can serve this over basmati rice, sliced pita wedges or top it with grilled chicken thighs. I couldn't find a red hot chile so I used a splash of red hot chile sauce. Try to use fresh tomato sauce if possible but you can use canned if you wish. I tried to double the recipe to save time but I wouldn't recommend it as there are too many vegetables to stir and you require a really big pot to do this. This came from the Fine Cooking magazine.
