Method

  1. In a large pot on medium heat, heat up the grapeseed oil, and fry the onions, garlic and ginger together with the curry powder, Garam Masala and Paprika until the onion is glazed but not crispy. Add more oil if necessary

  2. Add the coconut milk and water together with the carrots and sweet potato. Cover and cook until the vegetables are tender.

  1. Add the green beans, lentils and chickpeas and simmer, uncovered, for another 15-20min on low heat (slow and steady wins the race)

(the longer you let it stand for, the tastier!)
