Friday chickpea curry

Steps

  1. Saute the chopped onion, garlic and ginger until soft.
  2. Add the spices and toast them for half a minute so they release their aroma.
  3. Stir in the crushed tomato and cook until it reduces and darkens.
  4. Add the chickpeas and the coconut milk; cook for 15 minutes over low heat.
  5. Add the spinach and the chili to taste, and cook until they soften.
  6. If you want to nod to the Friday chickpeas, finish with chunks of desalted cod for a couple of minutes.
