Method

  1. 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.
  2. 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.

    For something that cooks very quickly, it's fairly tasty but needs more seasoning and definitely more than a 'squeeze' of lemon juice. I think it would be better with Naan rather than rice and I don't see it serving four hungry adults for a main meal

    Forgot to say that I added 100gr of low fat yoghut (58 calories) on the 2nd time of making and it turned out really creamy.
