Nothing says New Year's eve like

Curry!

Curry around here is a special treat since I can't get anyone to eat it with me. ~sigh~

But it doesn't stop me from making it.

Okay, it only says New Year's to me because I'm not one to fuss over New Years Eve.

I'll admit, I cheated with this one.  Here is how I cheated:

1 tablespoon oil
1 large onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
1 can chickpeas
1/4 cup of (store bought) red thai curry paste
1/4 cup tomato paste
1/2 cup water

In a wok add oil and saute onions until they become soft. Add ginger, garlic and cumin seeds cooking for a minute. Add chickpeas and toss cooking for about three minutes, add curry paste, tomato paste and water if needed.  Simmer for about fifteen minutes.

Serve with brown rice.
