Check out the latest recommended times in our Cooking Guidelines.

Before you start

  • Preheat the oven to 240C / fan 220C / gas mark 9
  • Line a baking tray with parchment paper
  • Pull out a large frying pan, a small bowl & a measuring jug

Roast the carrots

  • Trim the carrots (halve any large ones)
  • Place the carrot onto the lined baking tray and toss with 2 tsp oil, half the curry powder and a pinch of salt and pepper. Roast for 18-20 mins, until soft and golden

Pickle & prep

  • Meanwhile, trim and thinly slice the radishes, then add to the small bowl with the juice from half the lime and a pinch of salt. Toss to coat, then set aside to pickle
  • Finely slice the onion. Pick any woody stalks from the cavolo nero

Simmer the chickpeas

  • Heat the large frying pan with 2 tsp oil on medium heat. Once hot, add the onion and cook for 3-4 mins, until softening. Add the cavolo nero and cook for another 2-3 mins, until golden. Season with salt and pepper
  • Add the ginger & garlic paste, korma paste and remaining curry powder. Cook for 1 min, then stir in the chickpeas (with their stock), the creamed coconut, half the coconut yoghurt and 100ml water (50ml for 1 person). Bring to the boil and simmer for 4-5 mins, until thickened

Finishing touches

  • When the carrot has a few mins remaining, drizzle over the honey and toss to coat. Return to the oven for the remaining time
  • When ready, roughly chop the coriander and stir into the chickpeas. Stir in the radish pickling juice. Season to taste

Plate up

  • Share the curried chickpeas between bowls, topped with the pickled radish and roasted carrot. Serve with the remaining lime, cut into wedges. Finish with a dollop of the remaining coconut yoghurt
