How dinner comes together

  1. Start the jasmine rice according to the package directions. Dice the onion, mince the garlic and grate the ginger.

  2. Heat the oil in the skillet and cook the onion with a pinch of kosher salt until soft and translucent, 5–6 minutes.

  3. Stir in the garlic, ginger and curry powder and cook for 30 seconds, just until fragrant.

  4. Drain and rinse the chickpeas, then add them with the coconut milk and diced tomatoes.

  5. Simmer uncovered until the sauce lightly coats the chickpeas, 10–12 minutes.

  6. Fold in the spinach until wilted, balance the creamy sauce with lime juice and taste for salt. Serve over the rice.
