This Easy Chickpea curry is the perfect weeknight dinner: it’s quick and easy to make, it comes together in one pot. This dish has serious flavor, but it doesn’t require any hard-to-find spices, and it’s loaded with protein and fiber! You won’t miss the meat in this vegan-friendly dish. I used a mix of curry powder and tikkia masala powder together as the base. Tomatoes are a crucial part of the sweet, tangy, and savory background notes for the garbanzo/chickpea beans here, so please don’t leave them out . As well as the coconut milk.
