Ingredients

  • 10 oz onion diced (284g)
  • 1 red bell pepper sliced (250g)
  • tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 5 cloves minced garlic or frozen cubes
  • 5 tsp minced ginger or frozen cubes
  • 1 Tbsp. garam masala
  • 1 Tbsp. mild curry powder
  • 2 tsp. turmeric
  • 2 Tbsp. tomato paste 30g
  • 12 oz jarred marinara 336g
  • 13.5 oz can lite coconut milk 378g
  • Parsley for garnish

Instructions

  • Heat a large, heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat with a spritz of oil. Add diced onion and cook for five minutes until fragrant and tender. Add bell peppers, salt, and pepper, and cook for another 3 minutes, stirring often.
  • Add garlic, ginger, spices, and tomato paste and stir for one minute to wake up the spices. Add marinara and coconut milk and combine well. Bring to a low boil and let it cook for a couple of minutes before turning down to a simmer.
  • Enjoy with your protein of choice (we love meatballs!) over rice, cauliflower rice, noodles.. Or zoodles! I even love it over a bed of steamed broccoli.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave, adding a splash of water or broth if needed to loosen the sauce.
