This delicious curry is the perfect weeknight dinner: it comes together in under thirty minutes, and everything cooks in one pot. Tender chickpeas and mountains of fresh spinach are sautéed with chopped garlic and onions, simmered in a rich and creamy coconut curry sauce topped with a splash of lemon. Simply seasoned with a few shakes of salt and pepper, this intensely satisfying meal is the perfect example of how the most basic dishes can often be the most flavorful.
