  • 1 large red onion, thinly sliced

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 inch fresh ginger, peeled and minced or grated

  • 1 tbsp garam masala or curry powder

  • 1/4 tsp ground turmeric

  • 1/4 tsp ground black pepper 

  • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (or to taste)

  • 1/4 tsp salt (plus more to taste)

  • 1 and 1/2 cups diced tomatoes (equal to 1 14-oz. can; drain before using)

  • 1 and 1/2 cups full-fat coconut milk (equal to 1 14-oz. can)

  • 1 and 3/4 cups cooked chickpeas (equal to 1 16-oz. can; drain and rinse before using)

  • 2 tbsp freshly-squeezed lime juice (1 lime) (lemon also works)

  • chopped fresh cilantro (coriander) for serving





Instructions

In a large pan, heat the coconut oil over medium-high heat. Add the red onion with a pinch of salt. 

Cook, stirring frequently, until the onion is softened and starting to brown.

Reduce the heat to medium. Add the garlic and ginger; stir and cook for 60 seconds or until fragrant. Stir in the garam masala, turmeric, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and salt. Cook for 30 seconds more to toast the spices.

Add the tomatoes to the pan and stir well. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, for about 3-5 minutes or until the tomatoes are starting to break down and dry up a little bit. 

Stir in the coconut milk and chickpeas. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low.

Simmer the coconut chickpea curry for about 10 minutes or until reduced slightly. 

Stir in the fresh lime juice. Season to taste with additional salt.

Serve hot, over rice or other accompaniments of choice, and garnished with chopped fresh cilantro.

Enjoy!

Seafood green onion pancake

 Seafood green onion pancake maangchi’s recipe Some tips when making these pancakes: • For a vegetarian version, skip the seafood and egg and use vegetable stock. • The batter should be runny, because thick batter will clump when you cook it and your pancake won’t turn out well. • While cooking, press down and poke the pancake to make some gaps in between the green onions. You should see some steam coming up through the gaps, that means the green onions are being cooked nicely. • This pancake is too heavy to toss up and flip, so don’t try it! You’ll need a big spatula to turn it over. • Be sure to make the dipping sauce, that’s the best way to enjoy it! Ingredients   Serves 2 • ½ cup all-purpose flour • 1 tablespoon potato starch(corn starch) • ½ teaspoon kosher salt plus a pinch of salt • a pinch of ground black pepper • ¾ cup stock (anchovy kelp stock, chicken stock or vegetable stock), or water • 4 tablespoons vegetable oil • 12 green onions, roots and tops trimmed to 8 to ...
