"pumpkin curry | chickpeas, spinach, coconut milk, cilantro, served with basmati rice.
I'm back with another easy one-pot curry recipe! If you have cans of pumpkin puree lying around that you bought but never used... this one is for you. The pumpkin puree makes the curry thick and creamy, and it's packed with nourishing veggies (reheat well too- I can attest to this after eating leftovers all week. But best of all you don't have to deal with cutting up a whole pumpkin!"
