Equipment

Ingredients

  • 800 g chickpeas drained and rinsed
  • 400 ml full-fat coconut milk
  • 1 large sweet potato peeled and cut into small chunks
  • 1 onion finely sliced
  • 3 garlic cloves crushed
  • 3 tbsp ready-made korma curry paste
  • 400 g chopped tomatoes
  • 150 ml vegetable stock
  • 1 tbsp tomato purée
  • 1 tsp mango chutney
  • 100 g fresh spinach
  • Juice of ½ lime
  • Salt & black pepper

Instructions

  • Add the chickpeas, sweet potato, onion, garlic, korma paste, chopped tomatoes, stock, tomato purée and mango chutney to your slow cooker.
  • Pour in the coconut milk and give everything a really good stir.
  • Cook on LOW for 5–6 hours or HIGH for 3–4 hours, until the sweet potato is lovely and soft.
  • Stir through the spinach for the final 5 minutes, until wilted.
  • Finish with the lime juice and season to taste.

Notes

  • Choose full-fat coconut milk: It gives the korma its lovely creamy texture. Light coconut milk will work, but the finished sauce will be less rich.
  • Check your curry paste: Korma pastes vary in strength, so adjust the amount according to the brand you're using and how mild or spicy you like your curry.
  • Don't skip the lime: A squeeze of fresh lime at the end balances the creamy coconut sauce and brings all the flavours together.
  • For a thicker sauce: Remove the lid for the final 10–15 minutes and allow the korma to reduce slightly.
  • Storage: Cool leftovers completely, cover and refrigerate for up to 3days.
  • Freezing: Cool completely and freeze in suitable containers for up to 3 months. Defrost thoroughly in the fridge before reheating.
