Indian Chickpea Curry (vegan + GF)

Hey my lovelies,

Especially on cold days I’m always in the mood for comfort food. One of my favorite meals is definitely curry.
This delicious and nourishing Indian Chickpea Curry is vegan and gluten-free and you can make it with just a few ingredients in less steps.

I love adding indian spices because they’re not only delicious, but also healthy and warming.
Another important ingredient is coconut milk due to it‘s creamy texture and yummy taste. Moreover coconut milk is rich in healthy nutrients and fats which satisfy your body and soul.
I’ve also added a little bit of coconut blossom sugar because I like a little sweetness to spices and finished off the curry with a big squeeze of fresh lime juice. Here you can also check out the recipe of my ‘Red Chickpea Coconut Curry‘ which is very delicious as well.

If you cook a larger amount of curry, so that you‘ll have leftovers, don’t worry, because it tastes even better the next day. Moreover you can serve this meal at potlucks and take it to work or university with you. Or you can easily freeze it for another day when you’re busy or too lazy to cook. Thanks to the infused curry flavors, it’s a dish that‘ll definitely warm you up on cold and cozy days.

When you buy the yellow curry paste or the other seasonings, you should check the ingredient list as I always do, so you can make sure that the one you use has no artificial flavors or additives and that the ingredients originate from a biological cultivation.

You can serve this curry with rice, potatoes, quinoa, flat bread or just plain, however you like.

So, here we go with this easy and yummy recipe:
