- In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 5 minutes until it becomes translucent.
- Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Add the chopped red bell pepper and zucchini to the pot. Cook for another 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender.
- Sprinkle in the curry powder, cumin, and turmeric, and stir well to coat the vegetables with the spices. Cook for 1-2 minutes to toast the spices.
- Pour in the coconut milk and add the drained chickpeas. Stir to combine all ingredients, bringing the mixture to a gentle simmer.
- Reduce the heat and let it simmer for 10-15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. Stir in the chopped spinach and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the spinach is wilted.
- Season the curry with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve the Brazilian Coconut Chickpea Curry over cooked rice or quinoa, and garnish with fresh cilantro.
Notes
Feel free to adjust the spices according to your taste. This curry pairs well with a side of naan or pita bread.
