Chick Peas and Vegetable Casserole

This is a very healthy and flavorful dish. It's great for vegetarians. You know that you can also steam-cook your own chickpeas and change the vegetable combinations. My secret: I sometimes use this to help clean up leftover vegetables in my refrigerator. A useful Tip fro nyonya kitchen stories.

Ingredients
1 tin chick peas, drained
150g cauliflower, cut into flowerets
1 small carrot, sliced
1 small green pepper, diced
1 big tomato, diced
3 tablespoon oil
1 tablespoon curry powder (Baba's)
2 sprigs curry leaves
1 big onion, sliced
3 pips garlic, chopped
Seasonings
1/2 cup boiling water
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Salt and Sugar to taste

Method
  1. Heat oil in wok. Saute curry powder, curry leaves, onion and garlic untill aroma is released (about 3 mins)
  2. Add chicken peas, cauliflower, carrot and seasonings
  3. When soft, add pepper and tomato. Cook for another minute. (Note: add some water to prevent it sticking to pan)
This dish goes well with Chapati, Pita, Bagel or any breads.
Serves: 8
