Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • 1 teaspoon curry powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)

  • 1 can (15 ounces) chickpeas, rinsed and drained
  • 1/2 cup vegetable broth
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
  2. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.

  4. Add the curry powder, cumin, turmeric, and cayenne pepper (if using). Stir well to coat the onions and cook for 30 seconds.

  6. Add the rinsed and drained chickpeas to the pot.
  7. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
