Peanut-coconut curry
I eat a varied diet and actually like pretty much everything! But if you asked me what I most want to eat on a given evening… It’ll be curry, for sure! It’s such a delicious dish that you can endlessly adjust and adapt to your liking. This week I made this peanut-coconut version with chickpeas that I just had to share with you. ; )
Leftovers? Lucky you! This curry might be even tastier on the second day. The spices will have had more time to integrate into the sauce and the curry will have an even more amazingly complex flavor.
