Quick Potato and Garbanzo Curry
Apr. 5th, 2021 10:53 pmThis week I made "Quick potato and garbanzo curry" from "Meals in Minutes" by Wendy Hobson.
( recipe )
Thoughts and Variations
I used about 12 baby carrots instead od two regular carrots because that's what I had on hand. My can of garbanzo beans was 540mL so a bit more than called for I think but I added the whole thing. Since it didn't say to use canned tomatoes, I chopped up 2 tomatoes (a very full 1 cup) and used those. I used 3/4 cup of vegetable broth, and parboiled long grain rice. I left out the basil garnish and had garlic naan to accompany it.
It was a tasty recipe, though I think I used bigger potatoes than expected because my biggest frying pan was still overflowing. It was also difficult to tell when the potatoes were ready because I've never cooked them like that before, so I think they ended up a bit underdone. It also wasn't creamy in my opinion (and not as quick as implied) so I don't know if I missed something or did something wrong. Overall the flavours were good though so I could see making this again, though if I do I will definitely cut it in half.
