Instructions

Prep Ingredients

  • Peel husks off 2 sweet corn. Give it a quick rinse. Then trim all the kernels off with a knife.
  • Dice ½ an onion into thin slices.
  • Cut ½ a zucchini into small pieces as well.
  • Optional: Slice ½ a cucumber into thin slices - we'll use them as topping. Skip if you don't like cucumbers.
  • Open a can of chickpeas. Drain the juice. Then give them a quick rinse under running water. Drain-off the excess water in a strainer. Then measure ⅔ cup of chickpeas - set them aside.

Stir-fry Ingredients & Begin Curry

  • Pour 2 Tablespoons of Olive Oil into a frying pan. Place on medium-heat. Once it's hot, place in the chickpeas. Season them with a few sprinkles of salt & black pepper. Stir-fry them for a few minutes until the chickpeas start to get some coloring on the outside.
  • (Now scoop-out a few of these stir-fried chickpeas - we'll use it as garnish at the end.)
  • Then add in the sliced onions, zucchini and corn. Add-in a few more splashes of the olive oil. Stir-fry everything around until the onions start to turn translucent.
  • (Now scoop-out a few spoonfuls of the corn - we'll use it as garnish at the end.)
  • Then add in Minced Garlic (1 Tablespoon), Minced Ginger (1 Tablespoon). Quickly stir that in. Next, add in Honey (1 Tablespoon). Now, add-in a few pinches of Salt & Black Pepper. Then, add in Cumin Powder (1 teaspoon!) and Turmeric Powder (1 Tablespoon). Mix everything in evenly.
  • Then add in 1.5 Cups (375ml) of Coconut Milk. Followed by 1.5 Cups of Water.
  • Next, add-in Peanut Butter (2 Tablespoons). Use a soup ladle and mix it evenly into the soup.
  • Next, reduce the soup for 15 minutes on medium heat (or until it thickens into a curry).
  • Finally, season with 1 teaspoon(!) - NOT TABLESPOON - of salt.
  • Give it a taste - add more if needed!

Plate Corn Curry

  • Scoop some corn curry into a bowl.
  • Garnish with a few of the chickpeas and corn that you set aside earlier.
  • Then add pieces of cilantro and cucumber slices on top.
  • Sprinkle on some red chili flakes.
  • Finish with a few squeezes of lemon juice.
  • Bon Appetit - enjoy Ya'll!
