Chickpea and Tomato Coconut Curry Soup

Recipe Description

This comforting and delicious Chickpea and Tomato Coconut Curry Soup is great for tired weeknights when you want a satisfying meal ready in just 30 minutes. The secret ingredient in this recipe is curry powder. Stirred into the curry base, the golden powder adds bright color and savory depth to this plant-based dish. And don’t neglect the garnishes for that extra texture and flavor!  

The recipe comes together with mostly pantry staples and requires just a few fresh ingredients, like limes, onions, and cilantro. Canned full-fat coconut milk makes this curry soup rich and creamy while keeping it vegan-friendly. For this recipe, I like using canned fire-roasted tomatoes for a really good flavorful kick. I add a good pinch of chili flakes for extra spice but feel free to adjust the amount of chili to your liking. Serve with rice or rice noodles, if desired, and topped with thinly sliced red onions, roasted cashews, fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime.              

To make the Chickpea and Tomato Coconut Curry Soup, you will need the following ingredients:
