Chickpeas, coconut milk, and a few other simple ingredients slow cooker together in this flavorful vegan/vegetarian curry.
Cookbook recipe! This is one of the recipes found in my cookbook, The Easy & Healthy Slow Cooker Cookbook. Kind of. It’s 99% a cookbook recipe. I made one modification – I used canned diced tomatoes rather than roma tomatoes and I added a tad bit more salt. The rest of the recipe is the same.
If I had to pick which cuisines contribute most to this dish, I would say Thai and Indian. These two cuisines make some of the best curries around, and this recipe incorporates both. This isn’t a particularly pretty recipe. It basically looks the same after you cook it as it does beforehand.
This dish is vegan but not lacking in flavor. Full-fat coconut milk (or coconut cream) replaces the dairy but provides a wonderful creaminess.

I'd love to try this! I'm trying to be more healthy and loosely following Paleo so this might fit well with that. Thanks for sharing :)

This does look delicious. And my daughter really would love the chickpeas although I am curious as to how the chickpeas come out in a soup. Usually I just have them in salads or in humus.
