Ingredients

1 x (15 oz) can garbanzo beans (chickpeas), drained and rinsed

1 x (14 1/2 oz) can diced tomatoes

2 cups fresh spinach, roughly chopped

1 x 1 inch piece ginger root, minced

1/2 cup cilantro leaves, finely chopped

1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt

1 tablespoon curry powder

1 teaspoon garam masala

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons olive oil

4 pieces of pita bread

Method

Heat a large pot over medium heat and add olive oil, swirling to coat the bottom.

Add minced ginger to the pot and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Stir in curry powder, garam masala, garlic powder, and salt, cooking for another 30 seconds.

Add the drained chickpeas and diced tomatoes to the pot, along with 1/2 cup of water, and bring to a simmer.

Cook for 5 minutes, then add the chopped spinach in batches, allowing each batch to wilt before adding the next.

Continue to simmer for another 5 minutes, or until the chickpeas are tender and the spinach is fully wilted.

In a small bowl, mix the chopped cilantro with Greek yogurt and set aside.

Warm the pita bread in the oven or on a skillet until slightly crispy.

Serve the chickpea and spinach curry in bowls, topped with a dollop of cilantro yogurt, with warm pita on the side.
