Vegetarian Chickpea Curry with Turnips

By: mia_bella84 
"This is a great recipe if you don't want to fuss around in the kitchen. I discovered it one night when I wanted something packed with flavor, but wasn't willing to slave away in the kitchen. It's a meaty dish, with a hint of curry and cumin flavor. Serve on it's own or on some basmati rice. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!"

Original Recipe Yield 4 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon ground cumin
  • 2 tablespoons curry powder
  • 1 (15 ounce) can garbanzo beans (chickpeas), undrained
  • 1/2 red bell pepper, diced
  • 1/2 turnip, peeled and diced
  • 1 cup corn kernels
  • 1/2 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
  • 1 pinch crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 pinch cracked black pepper

Directions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the onion, garlic, cumin, and curry powder; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garbanzo beans, red bell pepper, turnip, corn, and tomato sauce. Season with red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the vegetables are tender and the curry has thickened, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
