• Pour in sherry and cook until most liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes. Add curry powder, cayenne pepper, chickpeas, and 1 cup of the vegetable broth; cook for about 5 minutes. Add remaining broth and bring mixture to a boil. Remove from heat, stir in couscous, and cover until couscous absorbs all the liquid, 5 to 10 minutes. Season with salt.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, ginger, serrano pepper and curry powder and continue cooking, 1 minute; set aside.
• Combine the chickpeas and their liquid, spinach, cauliflower, potatoes, tomatoes, 3/4 teaspoon salt and the cooked onion mixture in a 6-quart slow cooker. Cover and cook on high, 3 1/2 hours. Scatter the cheese over the vegetabls, cover and cook 30 more minutes. Serve with naan.

Steps:

• In a medium stockpot, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onion, bell pepper, and chili; cook, stirring, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, 1 minute. Add the broth, chickpeas, tomatoes, curry powder, salt, and black pepper; bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat and simmer gently, uncovered, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients and cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through, about 5 minutes. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Wash the rice a couple of times in cold running water, then leave to soak while you make the curry. Heat 1½ tbsp oil in a deep frying pan, and fry the onion for 10 mins until soft, but not turning golden.
• Add the garlic and fry for 1 min, then tip in the turmeric, cumin, garam masala and chilli powder, and toast for 30 seconds, stirring. Add the coconut milk and chickpeas. Simmer for 15 mins until the sauce has reduced slightly.
• Meanwhile, heat the remaining ½ tbsp oil in a small pan with the cloves, cinnamon and a pinch of turmeric. Stir until the mixture smells fragrant. Drain the rice and add to the spices, stirring well to coat in the oil. Pour in 600ml boiling water, bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to low. Add a tight-fitting lid and simmer gently for 10 mins, without removing the lid.
• About 5 mins before the end of the curry's cooking time, stir in the spinach and break it up with a wooden spoon as it defrosts. Season well. Add the tamarind or lime juice to balance the sweetness of the curry. Serve in bowls with the fragrant, steaming rice, removing the large spices as you serve. Top with a pinch of the desiccated coconut, if using.

Steps:

• Heat the curry paste in a large non-stick frying pan. Once it starts to split, add the onion and cook for 2 mins to soften. Tip in the tomatoes and bubble for 5 mins or until the sauce has reduced.
• Add the chickpeas and some seasoning, then cook for 1 min more. Take off the heat, then tip in the spinach and allow the heat of the pan to wilt the leaves. Season, add the lemon juice, and serve with basmati rice.

• Cover and let sit for about 5 minutes or until all the water is absorbed.
• Fluff couscous with a fork; add in walnuts and stir to combine.
• Lay out the tortillas; spread about 1 tablespoon chutney and 2 tablespoons yogurt over each tortilla.
• Cover each tortilla with about 5 spinach leaves.
• Spoon 1/4 of the couscous mixture onto each tortilla in a thick horizontal strip across the bottom third (leave about 1/2 inch border from the sides of the tortilla).
• Wrap up burrito-style (fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll up bottom to top).
• Cut in half on the bias and serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a saute pan, warm the oil over medium heat, and sweat the onion until just translucent. Add the carrot and garlic, and stir. After the garlic has browned slightly, sprinkle over the curry powder, and stir. Add the white wine to deglaze the pan. Add the tomatoes and chickpeas to the pan, then stir.
• Pour in the chicken stock, and bring the mixture to a simmer. Cover the pan with a lid, and cook for 10 minutes. Season the chickpeas with the sugar, and salt, to taste. Remove the pan from the heat and finish the chickpeas by stirring in the cold butter.

Steps:

• Place ginger, jalapenos, red pepper and tomatoes in a food processor and pulse to a rough puree. Set aside.
• Heat oil in a stockpot, add onion and saute until soft and golden. Add garlic and saute for 1 minute. Add bay leaves and spices to the onion mixture and continue cooking for 1 minute. Deglaze the pot with 1 cup of vegetable stock, then add the remaining stock, vegetable puree, chickpeas and chutney. Simmer for 30 minutes.
• Remove pot from heat, discard the bay leaves and carefully mash the chickpeas until the mixture is thickened. Stir in the coconut milk, and gently reheat being careful not to boil the soup. Season with salt and pepper. Garnish with the fresh chopped cilantro if desired.
• I use a hand blender after mashing the chickpeas as we prefer a smoother texture.
