Hello lovelies, I have a new delicious recipe for you: **pumpkin curry with chickpeas and mie noodles.**I’m very thrilled that this recipe is a result of a renewed collaboration with Alnatura*. The curry with pumpkin and chickpeas is super quick to make and the perfect comfort food – now that it has cooled off appropriately for the beginning of autumn. I promised you lots of pumpkin recipes of all sorts, I just can’t get enough of it. Next to pumpkin I have added the tasty Alnatura coconut milk and Alnatura chickpeas to the curry. Both are ingredients that I ALWAYS have in my pantry. The chickpeas are perfect for hummus but also for salads or roasted as a snack. I love using coconut milk for curries, soups or for sweet dishes.
RECIPE
Depending on how hot you like your curry, you can add more or less curry paste. It’s best to be cautious first and then add a little more later on. Instead of mie noodles you can also serve this curry with rice. We like the Alnatura basmati rice very much. You can also serve it with fresh naan bread. You can find a recipe for fresh naan bread here.
CURRY
We love curry, it’s the ideal meal for this cosy season. It doesn’t only warm you up from the inside, it’s evidentially very healthy. The regular consumption of curry should prevent lifestyle diseases, inhibit inflammation, stabilize the cholesterol level and have a positive effect on diabetes.
What really convinces me is how versatile a curry can be. You can try very many different combinations and always use new vegetables. We often cook it to use up leftover ingredients. This way it helps prevent food waste – you really don’t need any further reasons, do you?
With noodles the curry is very much loved by the girls. Mie noodles are super easy to make, you put them in boiling water for 3–5 minutes, rinse them with cold water and they are ready and patiently waiting for the curry to be cooked.
Did you know that you can also use the dripping water of the chickpeas, for example for a delicious chocolate mousse? You can find the recipe here. Or for vegan meringue or waffles or pancakes. I find it extremely fascinating how you can create delicious things from actual waste products. Chickpeas contain many fibres and are an important protein source for a vegetarian or vegan nutrition, as they consist of 20 % protein. The high proportion of zinc, magnesium and iron make the chickpea a small power package.
