Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp coconut oil
  • 2 yellow onions, diced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, minced
  • 2 (255g) packages grape/cherry tomatoes, sliced
  • 1 tbsp curry powder
  • 2 tsp turmeric
  • 1/2 tsp cumin
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 (400mL) can full-fat coconut milk
  • 1 cup vegetable broth
  • 2 cans chickpeas, rinsed and drained
  • 1 red pepper, diced
  • 2 cups spinach, chopped
  • Cilantro, to serve

Rice

  • 1 cups dry jasmine rice
  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • 1 tsp Butter

Instructions

  • Add everything besides red pepper, spinach and cilantro to Instant Pot in order listed above. Place lid on Instant Pot and make sure valve is set to seal.
  • Press the pressure cook button and set to high, then cook for 2 minutes. Instant Pot will take about 10 to 15 minutes to come to pressure then pressure cook the 2 minutes. Meanwhile, cook rice, water and butter in a rice cooker while chickpeas are cooking.
  • Do a quick release of the pressure by flicking the switch at the top with a spoon, then open lid when pressure gauge has dropped and lid opens easily. Stir in red pepper and spinach.
  • Serve over rice and garnish with cilantro. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

Make your own curry powder using turmeric, cumin, ginger and coriander.
Store the leftovers in the fridge for 4-5 days. Reheat on the stovetop or in the microwave for 1-2 minutes.
Freeze this curry for 3-4 months. Keep in mind the coconut milk doesn’t defrost well and may alter the consistency of the dish.
