My family and I REALLY enjoy Indian food. This is also for vegan lovers! I tried this recipe recently, and boy it is amazing. If you are a curry lover, you have to try this recipe! You can either pair it with rice, or quinoa, whichever you prefer. Let's get cooking!

INGRIDIENTS:

- olive oil

-1 medium sized onion, chopped

-1 medium sized bell pepper, chopped

-10 cherry tomatoes, cut in half (you may use more if you wish, of course)

-6 garlic cloves, minced

-3 tablespoons of ginger, minced

-2 teaspoons of paprika

-2 teaspoons of tumeric

-6 teaspoons of curry (now this totally depends on how much curry you like and the amount of spiciness you are trying to achieve, I have added more than this, approximately 2-5 tablespoons)

-2 (15. oz) cans of chickpeas (also known as garbanzo beans)

-1 cup of coconut milk (if you don't have any, regular milk will do)
