Kale with Chana & Coconut (V)

Changes: used vegan butter; replaced Greek yogurt with coconut yogurt; skipped curry leaves.


Ingredients

1 tbsp vegan butter

1 onion, finely chopped

2 heaped tsp cumin seeds

1 tsp turmeric

1 tsp ground coriander

1 tsp allspice

2 tbsp tomato paste

1 bunch #kale, large stalks removed, leaves finely shredded

1 can #chickpeas, drained

1 cup vegetable stock (homemade to reduce sodium)

1/4 cup grated coconut

4 heaped tbsp plain unsweetened coconut yogurt

1 tbsp mango chutney (I used Stonewall Kitchen brand)


To Serve

1 tbsp vegetable oil

3 cloves garlic, minced


Instructions

Heat the vegan butter in a deep frying pan, add the onion, then soften gently for 5 mins. Turn up the heat and add the spices; fry for 2 mins until fragrant. Stir in the tomato paste.


Add the kale, chickpeas, stock and two-thirds of the coconut, stir well, then cover the pan. Bring to a simmer and let the kale steam for 10 mins until very well wilted. Mix in the coconut yogurt and chutney, then season to taste - don't boil once the yogurt has gone in. Remove the pan from the heat, and leave it covered to stay warm.


Heat the oil in a small saucepan. When it's hot, add the garlic and sizzle for 30 secs-1 min until the garlic begins to turn golden. Spoon the oil and garlic over the chickpeas and kale, then finish with the remaining coconut. Add a dash of lime juice if you'd like.
