Perfect for boosting winter immunity!

Loaded with seasonal vegetables, convenient canned chickpeas and jazzed up with warming anti-inflammatory spices, this curry or soup is perfect for a quick and immune-boosting meal. I made this as a curry and then diluted it with chicken stock to whizz up for a quick soup.

  • 1 Tbsp brown mustard seeds
  • 1 onion finely diced or leek sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic crushed
  • 2 Tbsp grated ginger

  • 2 tsp ground cumin
  • 2 tsp ground coriander
  • 1 tsp iodised salt
  • 2 carrots chopped
  • 2-3 cups chopped cauliflower, broccoli or cabbage
  • 2 cans chopped tomatoes (I used homemade tomato soup)
  • 1-2 cans chickpeas
  • 1 can coconut cream

Method

  1. In a frying pan heat oil and mustard seeds until they start popping. Add onion, garlic, ginger and saute for 5 mins until soft.
  2. Add spices and stir well.
  3. Add vegetables and cook for a few minutes.
  4. Add tomatoes, chickpeas and coconut cream.
  5. Serve on rice, couscous or whizz up with extra chicken or vegetable stock for a hearty soup.
