Initial Sauté Mix
Vegan Pumpkin Curry
- 2 Tbs Olive Oil
- 1 Large Shallot, diced
- 1 & 1/2 inch Fresh Ginger, peeled & minced
- 3 Garlic Cloves, minced
- 1 Chili Pepper, finely chopped
- 1/2 tsp ground cumin
- 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
- 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp ground turmeric
- 2 Tbs Thai Red Chili Paste
Remaining Ingredients
- 1 Can Low-Fat/Lite Coconut Milk
- 1 15 oz. Can Pumpkin Puree
- 1 15 oz. Can Chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 1 Cup broccoli, chopped into florets
- 1 1/2 Tbsp Lime Juice
- 1-2 tsp salt or to taste
Directions
- Begin by heating the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the shallot with a pinch of salt, and stir until they start to brown, about 3-5 minutes.
- Then, add the ginger, garlic, and chili, and sauté for 30 seconds.
- Afterward, add the cinnamon, cumin, and turmeric with another pinch of salt, and cook for another 30 seconds or until fragrant.
- Stir in the Thai red curry paste and cook for 2-3 minutes until the mixture starts to stick together.
- Next, stir in the coconut milk, pumpkin puree, and chickpeas. Bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, stir in the broccoli, and cover the pan. Allow it to simmer for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- The broccoli should be bright green and slightly tender. Stir in the lime juice and season to taste with salt and black pepper.
- Serve hot over rice or a side of flatbread. Optionally top with minced cilantro and chopped cashews. Add sriracha for extra spice.
