Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons garlic infused olive oil
- 1 large Russet or Yukon Gold potato (about 250g), peeled and chopped into 1/2 inch cubes
- 1 medium carrot (75g), cut into rings
- 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon garam masala spice blend*
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus to taste
- Pepper, to taste
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1–2 teaspoons turmeric powder or yellow curry powder*
- 1 (15-ounce) can chickpeas, rinsed and drained*
- 12 ounces full fat canned coconut milk, shaken*
- 1/2 cup low-FODMAP vegan broth, prepared*
- 1 (15-ounce) can fire roasted diced tomatoes or plain diced tomatoes*
- 1–2 tablespoons potato starch or cornstarch
- 2 cups (75g) baby spinach or kale*
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, plus for garnish
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, plus extra lemon wedges for serving
Instructions
- In a large saucepan or shallow Dutch oven heat your infused oil. Add the potatoes and carrot slices, and stir to brown them for about 3-5 minutes
- Add the grated ginger and garam masala, salt, cumin, and turmeric and sauté for about a minute to infuse the oil with the ginger and coat the potatoes
- Once potatoes are seared, mix in the canned and drained chickpeas, coconut milk, low-FODMAP vegan broth and diced tomatoes
- Continue cooking until the sauce reaches a simmer. Reduce heat to medium-low to maintain the simmer, and cook for 10-15 minutes until the potatoes are just softened, but not mushy
- You may opt to try to crush some of the tomatoes while cooking, if you like the color
- For a thicker sauce, remove about 1/4 cup of the sauce, and stir in 1-2 tablespoons of potato starch, or cornstarch. Mix this back to the sauce while simmering
- Add the spinach and stir until wilted
- Stir in the cilantro and lemon juice
- Taste sauce and add additional seasonings, salt and pepper as desired
- Serve with rice, garnished with cilantro and lemon slices
