Vegetarian Curried Chickpeas and Dahl. Very similar to an Indian food breakfast dish. Chickpeas (chole) and dal are curried together in a sweet tomato sauce for a dish that is delicious on it's own or paired with rice.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups water or vegetable broth
  • 1 16 ounce can diced tomatoes, including liquid
  • 1 16 ounce can chickpeas, including liquid
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 stalks celery, chopped
  • 1 1/2 cups uncooked dahl (lentils or split peas)
  • 3 tbsp orange juice concentrate
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 1/2 tsp ginger
  • 1 1/2 tsp curry powder
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 1 1/2 tsp cumin
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro

Preparation:

Bring all ingredients to a simmer in a large pot or saucepan.

Reduce heat, cover and allow to cook for at least 45 minutes, stirring occasionally. Serve hot over rice if desired.

A delicious and filling one pot meal that's easy to make. We made it on a propane stove during a weekend boat trip.
