Chickpea, Tofu and Kale Curry

4

10 mins

A creamy, fragrant curry of chickpeas and tofu simmered in a spiced tomato and coconut sauce with ginger, garlic and green chilli, finished with plenty of kale. It’s naturally plant-based and ready in 30 minutes. Chickpeas and tofu provide plenty of plant protein, and the chickpeas, kale and brown rice add lots of fibre.

Ingredients
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 red onion, diced
  • 4 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, finely grated
  • 1 jalapeño or green chilli, sliced (deseed for a milder curry)
  • 2 tbsp garam masala
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp ground turmeric
  • 1 x 400g tin chopped tomatoes
  • 150ml light coconut milk
  • 1 x 400g tin chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 280g firm tofu, pressed and cut into cubes
  • 150g kale, tough stalks removed, chopped (fresh or frozen)
  • Pinch of salt (¼ tsp) and black pepper
  • 2 x 250g pouches cooked brown rice (or 200g dried brown rice), to serve
