Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss the pumpkin with olive oil, salt, garlic powder, chili powder, and garam masala. Roast for about 30 minutes.
  2. Spread chickpeas onto a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil and salt, and roast in the oven for 20–30 minutes until crispy.
  3. In a skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Sauté onion until golden, then add garlic and ginger. Stir in spices until aromatic.
  4. Add tomato paste, coconut milk, and salt to the skillet. Simmer for about 10 minutes to thicken the sauce.
  5. Fold the roasted pumpkin and half of cilantro into the sauce and simmer for another 5-10 minutes.
  6. Serve hot topped with crispy chickpeas, remaining cilantro, and coconut flakes, with rice or naan.
