Chef's tip
Avocado oil is neutral and handles high heat, making it a good all-purpose swap.
1 large yellow onion, finely diced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp fresh ginger, peeled and finely grated
1 tsp cumin seeds
1 ½ tsp ground coriander
1 ½ tsp garam masala
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground turmeric
½ tsp cayenne pepper
1 can (14 oz) diced tomatoes
2 cans (15 oz each) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1 cup vegetable broth
1 tsp salt, plus more to taste
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice

For serving

¼ cup fresh cilantro, roughly chopped (optional)
cooked basmati rice or naan, for serving (optional)
Chef's tip
Gluten-free breads hold together best when warmed or toasted.

Instructions

1
Heat the oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat until shimmering. Add the cumin seeds and cook, stirring, until they sizzle and turn a shade darker, about 30 seconds — watch closely, as they can burn quickly.
2
Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and golden at the edges, 8–10 minutes.
