Butter Chickpea Curry image

I tried this recipe from a friend last night - divine in pita bread. Play around with the vegetables and spices to suit your taste. I guess a low fat version could be made with coconut cream or low fat evaporated milk. Watch the cream - it can burn easily to the bottom.
