Coconut Curry Vegetables - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 tablespoons oil
    2 large onions, diced
    3 garlic cloves, minced
    1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
    1 red chile, finely minced
    3 tablespoons curry paste (I like Rogan Josh)
    1 (400 ml) can light coconut milk (unsweetened)
    1 carrot, quartered lengthways, chopped into 1cm pieces
    1 small sweet potato, peeled and diced carrots size
    1 cup diced pumpkin
    1 (440 g) can chickpeas
    1 cup broccoli floret
    1 red capsicum, diced
    1 zucchini, cut same as carrot
    1 bunch spinach, well washed and stems discarded
    1 lime, juice of
    1/2 cup chopped fresh coriander
Preparation
    Heat the oil over medium heat, add the onions and cook until softened but not coloured; about 10 minutes.
    Add the ginger, garlic and chilie and cook a further couple of minutes.
    Add the curry paste, stir and cook a couple of minutes before adding the carrot, sweet potato and pumpkin.
    Add the can of coconut milk and a can of water and allow to cook uncovered until the sauce has reduced and thickened a bit and veg almost cooked. This takes me about 40 minutes.
    Add the can of chickpeas and the softer veggies-broccoli, capsicum and zucchini and cook a further 10 minutes (or to your liking) with a lid on.
    Just before serving, stir through the spinach leaves, lime juice and fresh coriander leaves. Keep stirring gently until the leaves are wilted.
    Serve as part of a curry meal.
