- 1 small red onion, small dice
- 1 red pepper, small dice

METHOD:
STEP 1
Preheat the oven to 160Fan/180*C and line a large baking tray with parchment paper. Pat the chickpeas dry with kitchen towel and add to a bowl with the cornstarch and 1 large tsp of the Khulna Bang spices. Stir to coat well, spread out onto the tray and bake for 25-30 minutes until really crispy. Stir round every 10 minutes.
STEP 2
Meanwhile, heat a large drizzle of olive oil in a frying pan and add the red onion. Fry for 5 minutes until soft before adding the red pepper and sweet potato. Continue to fry for 5 minutes.
Stir the rest of the spice blend with 50ml water to a paste. Pour this into the curry pan along with 400g chopped tomatoes. Stir then bring to the boil and simmer over a gentle heat with a lid on for 20-25 minutes or until the sweet potato is cooked through.
STEP 3
Prepare the rest of the meal e.g. rice and herbs - *for the figgy rice salad, to three portions of cooked rice, add 3 finely chopped figs, a bunch of chopped fresh parsley, ½ diced red chilli and 1 tbsp lemon juice.
Just before serving, stir in the spinach and cook for a few minutes to wilt the leaves. Serve the curry warm topped with the crunchy chickpeas and any other desired accompaniments.
