We have curry all the time, and my favorite to make is a vegan chickpea coconut curry served with basmati rice!
Zero Waste Chickpeas
I love chickpeas and I used to buy canned. To reduce my waste I now buy dried chickpeas from Shopzero, The Daily Goods Store, or Granadilla Eats (Nude Foods) who all sell it free from traditional packaging. This is just one of the many items in my zero waste pantry which I buy this way. When shopping online I get the pantry items in a reusable jar, and when I go shop in store I take along my reusable jars.Â
Zero waste living takes a little bit of planning. The trick with cooking dried chickpeas is that you need to soak the chickpeas overnight. After soaking, 1 cup of dried chickpeas will make about 3 cups of soaked chickpeas, as they triple in size whilst soaking. And cooking the chickpeas that have been pre-soaked can take about an hour or more.
