Ingredients (use vegan versions):
- dollop of oil
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 large onion/2 smaller ones
- 3 large tomatoes
- 1 cup precooked chickpeas/lentils
- 1 large carrot
- 1 medium potato
- any other vegetables you might feel like
- 1/4 teaspoon each salt, ground cloves, ground tumeric
- 1/2 teaspoon each cinnamon, ground chilli peppers
- 2 teaspoon cumin
Directions:
Chop up your vegetables into bite sized pieces, and crush
your garlic, or chop finely.
Heat oil in heavy based pan (with fitting lid!) and cook
onions and garlic until onion is clear.
Add all the spices, stir, gasp, choak, put exhaust fan on.
Add tomatoes & stir. They should liquify a lot, and stop
you gasping.
Add other vegetables, and chick peas, and stir.
Cover with a tight lid, and leave to cook for 15 mins or
until vegetables are cooked. Stir occassionally, and you
may need to add a little water, depending on how juicy your
tomatoes are.
Eat!
A little soy yoghurt is a nice addition to this too, makes
it nice and smooth, but still with a bite.
This is a recipe I got from my good friend Ali. It is
(apparently) a traditional Pakistani curry. You can
substitute any vegetables above, except the tomatoes and the
onions, as long as you keep to about the same amount.
