Chickpea & Potato Curry

I make chana masala, the classic Indian chickpea curry, in my slow cooker. First browning the onion, ginger and garlic really makes the sauce amazing.

Ingredient

  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 teaspoons minced fresh gingerroot
  • 2 teaspoons ground coriander
  • 1 teaspoon garam masala
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1 can (15 ounces) crushed tomatoes
  • 2 cans (15 ounces each) chickpeas or garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 large baking potato, peeled and cut into 3/4-inch cubes
  • 2-1/2 cups vegetable stock
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • Chopped fresh cilantro
  • Hot cooked rice
  • Optional: Sliced red onion and lime wedges
Direction
  1. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat; saute onion until tender, 2-4 minutes. Add garlic, ginger and dry seasonings; cook and stir 1 minute. Stir in tomatoes; transfer to a 3- or 4-qt. slow cooker.
  2. Stir in chickpeas, potato and stock. Cook, covered, on low until potato is tender and flavors are blended, 6-8 hours.
  3. Stir in lime juice; sprinkle with cilantro. Serve with rice and, if desired, red onion and lime wedges.
