Chickpea Curry

Submitted by Janice W

"My sister got this recipe in Chiang Mai, Thailand when she was staying with some locals during her travels. It's one of my favorites. Thai basil tastes best in the recipe but fresh sweet basil is good too. And if you like your curry hot, use 1 TBSP of curry paste."

Second time making this, I doubled the spices and found it more suiting to my tastes, and boy was it delicious! Will definitely be adding to my personal collection of recipes for sure.

The taste was great! cant believe how easy it was to make. I had to use dried basil but will use fresh next time to see if it is better but, I cant imagine so. going in my binder!

The vegans in my house loved this. I left out the oil and used broth instead and subbed cilantro to taste in place of the basil. Some served it over tostitos and other had it over rice. Thanks for the recipe.
