  1. RICE, RICE BABY!

    Place the rinsed rice in a pot with 300ml of salted water. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the water has been absorbed, 25-30 minutes. Drain (if necessary) and cover.

  2. CHICK(PEA) OUT THIS STEW!

    Place a pot over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the diced onion and fry until soft, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the tomato paste, the grated ginger and the NOMU rub. Fry until fragrant, 3-4 minutes (shifting constantly). Mix in the tomato passata and the drained Chickpeas and simmer until slightly reduced, 5-6 minutes (stirring occasionally). If the stew reduces too quickly, add a splash of water.

  3. FINISHING TOUCHES

    When the stew has reduced, pour in the coconut cream and simmer until reduced and thickened, 10-12 minutes (stirring occasionally). In the final minute, add the rinsed shredded Spinach and cook until wilted. Season with salt, pepper, and a sweetener (to taste).
