- In dutch oven or large pot, saute the onion with a generous lug of vegetable oil for 3 minutes until translucent. Add ginger and garlic, and saute for a further 1 minute before adding the curry paste. Stir, constantly for 1 minute, then add carrot, chickpeas and potato, stirring until coated in curry paste.
- Deglaze the pot with the water. In a small bowl, combine veggie stock, peanut butter and soy sauce. Add this mixture, along with peanuts and minced kaffir lime leaves to the pot and stir to combine. Leave then leave to simmer for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent burning, until the potato and carrot have softened.
- Add the coconut cream, coriander and spinach leaves and stir to combine. After 1-2 minutes, once the spinach leaves have wilted, turn off the heat. Serve over white rice, garnish with chilli, peanuts, coriander and a wedge of lime.
