FAQ
Is this recipe vegan?
The curry is plant-based, but naan may contain dairy or ghee. Use vegan naan or make your own if needed.
Does this dish contain gluten?
Wholegrain naan usually contains gluten. Check the label or use gluten-free naan or flatbread.
How can I adjust the spice level?
Reduce chili or curry powder, or add extra chili on the side. You can use milder spices if you prefer.
How should I store leftovers?
Let cool, store in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days. Reheat gently in a pan or oven.
Can I freeze this meal?
Yes. Freeze the curry (and naan if desired) separately; thaw and reheat thoroughly before serving.
What are the gut-health benefits of this dish?
It's high in fiber from whole grains and chickpeas, and spices provide polyphenols that support gut microbes.
How can I avoid gas from legumes?
Rinse canned chickpeas well, soak if you like, cook until very soft, and eat smaller portions; start with about 1/4 cup if sensitive.
Is this suitable for a low-FODMAP diet?
