I adore Italy and it’s beautiful cuisine but after several days of eating Italian, I’m ready for a change of cuisine. That’s the American in me, spoiled by the abundance of foreign foods available. But we Americans aren’t alone, our Australian cousins and British parents also love ethnic foods. We all tend to agree that Mexican, Thai, Chinese and Indian are among our favorites.
Pumpkin Chickpea Lentil Curry
I love this Curry, its full of Indian spices like Gram Marsala, Tumeric, Ginger, garlic and chili. If you can’t find fresh pumpkin where you live you can omit it and it will still be delicious. The coconut milk adds a nice creamy consistency to the lentils and chickpeas. This is a vegetarian recipe that is hearty and filling and gluten and dairy free too! You can stock up your pantry with these dry ingredients and be ready to make this dish even if you are in desperate need of going to the grocery store. Best of all it’s ready in under 30 minutes, so get your rice started and you will be sitting at the table in front of a steaming bowl of curry in no time.
