Chickpea and Green Apple Curry

Instructions:

1. Heat the oil in a saucepan. Add the onions, garlic and chilli and sauté until softened.
2. Add the curry powder, spices, herbs, stock powder and salt and pepper. Cook for a minute or so until the spices release their aroma.
3. Add the chopped tomatoes and stir well. Gently cook for about 5 minutes ensuring that the mixture doesn’t burn, and then add 2 cups water. Put the lid on the saucepan and cook on high heat for about 10 minutes.
4. Use a stick blender to blend the onion and tomato mix to a puree.
5. Add the carrots, marrows, apples and chickpeas. Stir through and add the remaining water. Reduce the heat to very low and simmer for 60-90 minutes.

To serve:

Garnish with fresh coriander and serve on a bed of rice, or with wraps, and some chutney.
