Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp garlic-infused oil
  • 1 carrot or 100g button mushrooms thinly sliced
  • 400 ml gluten-free vegetable stock
  • 1 tsp gluten-free soy sauce
  • 40 g creamed coconut block optional but highly recommended
  • 1 tsp maple syrup optional
  • 2-3 tbsp frozen peas
  • 400 g tinned chickpeas drained
  • Handful of fresh chives chopped

For the spice blend:

  • 1 1/2 tbsp gluten-free plain flour
  • 2 tsp mild curry powder
  • 1/2 tsp dried chilli flakes
  • 1/2 tsp Chinese five spice optional

Instructions

  • In a large wok, add the garlic-infused oil and place over a medium-high heat. Once heated, fry the carrots or mushrooms until softened.
  • Add the gluten-free flour, curry powder, chilli flakes and five spice to the pan and mix to coat the veg. Keep stirring!
  • After about a minute, pour in the stock, soy sauce and maple syrup. Stir to combine.
  • Then add the creamed coconut block, allow it to break down and stir through so the curry becomes thickened and creamy.
  • Add in the frozen peas, followed by your chickpeas, stir through and allow to cook for around 5 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat, finish with chives and serve with rice.
