The Chickpea Curry recipe is one of the first curry recipes I’ve made that doesn’t call for any sort of cream or dairy-substitute, like coconut milk. It’s a lighter, tomato-based curry that’s full of flavor and happens to be super simple to make. This recipe calls for canned chickpeas to make it as fast as possible, but you can make Instant Pot Chickpeas from scratch before you get started!
If you’re still getting used to your pressure cooker, I’ve got loads of healthy Instant Pot recipes for you to try, all with step-by-step instructions. I know how intimidating the Instant Pot can be when you’re first getting started, so I also walk you through it in my video tutorials.
Also, be sure to check out The Fresh & Healthy Instant Pot Cookbook for recipes that are made easy-to-find whole food ingredients. There’s a photo and nutrition information for EVERY recipe in the book. This recipe is adapted from The Instant Pot Electric Pressure Cooker Cookbook.
Recipe Notes:
Feel free to use any veggies you prefer or need to use up in your fridge– I imagine that you could use practically any vegetable you like. I personally don’t care for the texture of okra, so I used frozen peas instead. I served this curry with jasmine rice that I also cooked in the Instant Pot. To make it, I combined 1 cup dry rice with 1.25 cups of water and used the “Rice” setting. (12 minutes at low pressure.) As always, if you make a substitution to this recipe, please leave a comment below letting us know what worked for you, so we can all benefit from your experience.
Stove Top Directions:
Don’t have an Instant Pot? You can make this curry on the stove by simply sautéing the onion, bell pepper, and garlic in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add in the rest of the ingredients, as directed above, then bring the liquid to a boil. Lower the heat to a simmer and cover to let the flavors mingle for 15 minutes. Remove the lid, add in the salt, pepper, and lime juice, and serve over rice. — Reader Feedback: If you’ve already been cooking with the Instant Pot, what has been your favorite recipe so far?
