From the Test Kitchen

This quick-cooking vegetable curry is packed with flavor from rich coconut milk, tangy lime juice, and tomato achaar (a combination of tomatoes, tamarind, chiles, and more). It’s all served over a bed of fluffy garlic rice and garnished with crispy onions for an extra crunch.

Cover and cook, without stirring, 13 to 15 minutes, or until the water has been absorbed and the rice is tender. Turn off the heat and fluff with a fork. Cover to keep warm.

Meanwhile, wash and dry the fresh produce. Cut off and discard the stem of the pepper. Halve lengthwise; remove the ribs and seeds, then medium dice. Cut off and discard any stem ends from the green beans; cut into 2-inch pieces. Drain and rinse the chickpeas. Quarter the lime.

Carefully add the tomato achaar and sautéed aromatics to the pan. Cook, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 minutes, or until thoroughly combined. Add the drained chickpeas and coconut milk (carefully, as the liquid may splatter); season with salt and pepper. Heat to boiling on high. Cook, stirring occasionally, 6 to 8 minutes, or until thoroughly combined and the liquid is thickened. Turn off the heat. Stir in the juice of 2 lime wedges. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired. Serve the garlic rice topped with the finished curry and crispy onions. Serve the remaining lime wedges on the side. Enjoy!
