Ingredients

  • 1 onion chopped
  • 5 cloves garlic
  • 2 cans chickpeas 540ml per can
  • 1 tbsp smoked paprika
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • 5 tbsp smooth peanut butter
  • 1 tsp chili flakes
  • 1.5 tbsp Gochujang paste Korean Hot Pepper Paste
  • 1/4 cup peanuts
  • 1 can diced tomatoes 796ml
  • 1 can coconut milk 398ml
  • 2 cups spinach

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a large pan or skillet, add a drizzle of oil before adding in some diced onions, letting it sweat for a minute or so before adding in the garlic.
  2. Add in your chickpeas, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir.
  3. Add in your peanut butter and keep stirring it so it can melt in the heat.
  4. While stirring, mix in the chili flakes gochujang paste, peanuts, and a can of diced tomatoes.
  5. Finally, add in a can of (full fat) coconut milk and let everything simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in spinach before serving.
  6. Serve with peanuts and a sprinkle of chili flakes on top (and optional dried basil as garnish and rice as a side) or store in airtight containers for the week.

Notes

  • If you have crunchy peanut butter and would like to use that instead, it works too! It'll just have the extra peanuts in the dish from the peanut butter.
