- 1 Tbsp of Coriander seeds (or 2 tsp of dry coriander)
- 2 cups of Coconut Milk (1 14.5oz can will do perfectly)

Preparation
-
1) In a large dutch oven, add the oil along with the onion, add a tiny pinch of salt and saute until translucent, meanwhile, in a mortar and pestle, grind the whole spices until they are slightly pulverized but still mainly whole.
2) Add the ginger and garlic, sautee for a couple minutes, then add the partially crushed spices, cook for a minute, add the remaining spices, stir them in a minute as well then add the chickpeas and sweet potatoes and allow them to cook with the spices for 2 minutes stirring them the whole time so the spices don't burn.
3) Add the coconut milk and water along with a good pinch of salt, bring to a boil, partially cover, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for about 45 minutes.
4) Once the sweet potatoes are super tender, take a potato masher and lightly mash the chickpeas and potatoes a bit to thicken the stew, then increase the heat to medium high, add the greens, cook for just a few minutes then serve over rice with fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime!
