Chickpea, Potato and Tomato Curry

Chickpea, Potato and Tomato Curry is a really simple one pot meal, that covers all your flavor bases; it has all the ingredients of a meal, readily available in your supermarket or you may even have them handy in your pantry. I am not sure whether this is a true curry; I called it a curry because of the sauce with spices that include curry. This dish happens to be vegetarian, even vegan, but may be I should not tell that to the meat lovers.

Inspiration from this dish came from Immaculate Bites. I stumbled upon Imma’s food blog and recognized many recipes/flavors from my time in the Caribbean. Her Curry Channa and Aloo, has chickpeas and potatoes as the main ingredients and a whole list of spices. It looded and sounded delish, so I made it, enjoyed it, and that recipe was the basis for my Chickpea, Potato and Tomato Curry.

After trying Imma’s recipe, I have to say that it was a little too spicy for me, so I changed a few things to keep the flavors and lower the burn. I added fire roasted diced tomatoes and a mix of various mushrooms. I pulsed half of the amount of chickpeas in the food processor, and left the other half intact. I also left out the cayenne pepper, the habanero pepper and the green onions. The last thing I added was lemon juice, which adds a little bit of brightness to the flavor.

The end result is a good looking  one pot meal with an overload of flavor and very satisfying. I don’t think it needs rice or bread or any carbohydrate addition because it already has chickpeas and the potatoes. You could serve some fresh green salad with it if you like.
