Ingredients

  • 1 Tbsp vegetable oil 15 mL
  • 1 medium white onion diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 Tbsp fresh grated ginger
  • 1 Tbsp garam masala
  • 1 oz can crushed tomatoes 425 g
  • 1 oz can coconut milk 400 g
  • 1 oz can Kidney Beans drained, 425 g
  • 2 tsp soy sauce 10 mL
  • ½ tsp salt optional
  • To serve: white rice, cilantro, crushed red pepper flakes, lime juice

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Prep: If serving with rice, prepare rice.
  2. Flavor Makers: Heat oil in a large pot over medium/high. Add onion, garlic, ginger, and garam masala. Cook until onion softens, 3 to 5 minutes.
  3. Filler Uppers: Add crushed tomatoes, coconut milk, kidney beans, and soy sauce, then bring to a gentle simmer. Let cook for 10 minutes to let flavors blend together. Taste and add salt as needed to intensify flavors.
  4. Serve: Ladle curry over warm rice. Top with fresh cilantro, a pinch of crushed red pepper, and a squeeze of lime juice.

Notes

  • Storage: This curry is great for meal prep! You can store it with rice in personal-sized airtight containers in the fridge for up to 5 days. Just reheat it all together! You may need a splash of water when reheating as the kidney beans tend to thicken when cooled.
  • To freeze it: You can also freeze the curry for up to 2 months. Let thaw in the fridge overnight before reheating for the best texture.
