Method
- In a large heavy-based pan, heat the oil over a medium-high heat and fry the onion for 5-6 mins until golden brown. Add the garlic and ginger, then fry for 1 min more.
- Stir in the ground spices and salt, and fry for 2 mins, then stir in the tomato purée and fry for a further minute. Add the tinned tomatoes, chickpeas and 100-150ml water. Turn the heat down and simmer for 10 mins.
- Add the spinach and stir to wilt, then add the cream and butter. Stir in the fenugreek leaves and garam masala and garnish with coriander. Serve with rice or naans and an extra drizzle of cream, if you like.
