Vegan Rogan Josh
( I used curry powder from this recipe -->>

if you prefer yours mild use just 1/2 tsp of chili or cayenne pepper, I used one of each. This quantity would last for quite few batches.
Ingredients:
Chop 2 medium onions, add 2 tbsp of above curry powder, 3 cm grated ginger & 2 crushed garlic cloves. Fry using 3 tbsp of vegetable oil (I am using rapeseed lately) for about 15 min until onion is soft, on medium heat, stir frequently!
Meanwhile - open a can of good quality italian tomatoes, I found is worth paying extra 30-40 pence as cheaper brands are far too tangy. Make sure you chop them in the can if they are whole.
Peel 2 medium size sweet potatoes and chop into smallish cubes 1/1.5 cm.
Open 2 cans of chick peas, in fact this time I used 1 can of chick peas and one of cannellini beans but add cannellini just 5 min before the end of cooking as they would easily fall apart.
Add whole can of tomatoes, chick peas and 250 ml of water to onion and spice mix.
Now.... I used pressure cooker, so cooking time was perhaps 15 min, in the pan I would say allow at least 30 min. I first made sure everything boiled once, stirred it and put cover on after about 2-3 min.
After 15 min I checked that sweet potatoes were cooked and added 1 tbsp of salt flakes, use salt sparingly! V. easy to overdo whilst seasoning curries!
3/4 can of Coconut milk, less if using coconut cream, but start with a quarter of this quantity and see how you like the flavour.
Boil once more.
The dish is ready to serve. Kids prefer it with rice.
I switched lately to brown basmati rice as it has more flavour and is better for us.
You can serve it with pita bread which I warm up in a toaster.
Can add fresh coriander or some coriander pesto from a jar.
