CHICKPEA CURRY WITH RICE

Steps:

• Cook the basmati rice according to the package instructions.
• Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium-low heat. Add the onions, season with salt and pepper and cook until the onions are dark brown and caramelized, about 10 minutes. Stir in the curry powder and garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Pour in the vegetable stock and stir to scrape up all the brown bits in the pan. Add the chickpeas, coconut milk, honey and a squirt of sriracha. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
• Warm the naan in the microwave. Serve the curry over the rice with the warmed naan. Garnish with the cilantro.

RICE WITH CHICKPEAS

Steps:

• Cover chickpeas with water and simmer 10-15 minutes or until just tender.
• Meanwhile, prepare the rice. In a saucepan, heat 2 tablespoons of oil. Add garlic and fry 2 minutes. Stir in rice and stir-fry 3 to 4 minutes, then stir in 1-1/4 cups stock or water. Simmer 10 minutes, then add another 1-1/4 cups stock or water. Continue cooking 10 to 12 minutes or until liquid is absorbed and rice is tender.
• Drain chickpeas. In a skillet, pour enough oil to just cover the bottom. Add chickpeas and fry, stirring frequently, until golden-brown. Remove chick peas with slotted spoon and stir into rice.
• Serve topped with tomato sauce.
