Helena and June made this African Curried Coconut Stew with Chickpeas in the South Arm Cooking Club for Seniors.
This African Curried Coconut Stew with Chickpeas is wonderful. The peanut butter adds an interesting flavour to this hearty stew.

Instructions
There’s this soup at the Ladle up at SFU called mango chickpea curry I think? It’s REALLY good. Actually all the soup at the Ladle is good. If you’re ever up there, you should definitely stop by! One of the best places to get soup IMO.
This is one of my favourite go-to recipes. I have used it since you put it up. David, Trout Lake, Vancouver
