Ingredients
We’re loving that these bowls are made with Mahatma® Jasmine Rice, one of our favorites for diverse dishes like this one! This soft, fluffy rice releases a sweet aroma while cooking and is perfect for curry recipes. It’s gluten-free, preservative free, and free of MSG!
With so many different variations of rice, we’re loving how Mahatma® Rice takes our weeknight dinners to the next level!
Curry Powder – We used a spicy curry powder blend in this recipe. However, any yellow curry powder will work! Feel free to adjust the level of spice by adding cayenne.
Mahatma® Jasmine Rice – As mentioned above, we love using Mahatma® Jasmine Rice for this recipe! It’s the perfect texture and brings out the delicious flavors of the curry.
Garlic – We used fresh garlic. However, garlic powder works great, too!
Vegetable Broth – Don’t have vegetable broth? Chicken broth is a great substitution!
Coconut Milk – We recommend using lite coconut milk to keep the curry from becoming too thick.
Tip: Adjust the thickness of the curry to taste by adding more broth to it at the end!

Great recipe! We cooked the patties in the oven for about 12 minutes at 425 degrees (flipping after 5 minutes) and they were pretty well done — I’d check them at 8-10 minutes next time. We also used the entire can of chickpeas, no brown sugar, and wilted spinach instead of kale. This was three servings for us lol

Hey there! Just found your site and I’m loving it so far! Quick question.. the chickpeas.. are they from a jar? Should we heat them or season them in any way? Or just throw them on cold?
Christine McMichael replied:
Great question! The chickpeas are canned. You can add them cold (which is what I often do) or heat them up on the stove or oven! Season to taste. I hope you enjoy the recipe!
