Step-by-step recipe

check things off as you go

  1. Faire revenir oignon

    Émince l’oignon finement. Dans la poêle chaude avec l’huile, fais-le revenir 3 min à feu moyen sans le colorer.

    Tip · Émince l’oignon finement pour qu’il fondre rapidement sans brûler.

  2. Ajouter curry et tomates

    Verse le curry en poudre dans la poêle, mélange 30 secondes. Ajoute les tomates concassées et laisse mijoter 5 min à feu doux en remuant.

  3. Incorporer pois chiches

    Ajoute les pois chiches égouttés dans la poêle avec le mélange tomates-curry. Laisse chauffer 2 min à feu moyen en remuant.

  4. Verser lait de coco

    Ajoute le lait de coco dans la poêle et mélange bien. Laisse frémir 5 min à feu doux pour que les saveurs se mélangent.

    Tip · Si le lait de coco épaissit trop, ajoute un peu d’eau chaude pour ajuster la texture.

  5. Cuire riz

    Dans la casserole, porte 25 cl d’eau à ébullition. Ajoute le riz, baisse le feu et laisse cuire 20 min à couvert sans toucher.

  6. Ajouter épinards

    Ajoute les épinards surgelés dans la poêle avec le curry. Laisse cuire 3 min à feu moyen en remuant jusqu’à ce qu’ils soient décongelés.

  7. Assaisonner

    Goûte et ajoute la pincée de sel si besoin. Mélange bien et laisse reposer 2 min hors du feu.

  8. Servir

    Répartis le riz dans les assiettes et recouvre avec le curry de pois chiches et épinards.
