Directions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add cumin seeds and cloves, saute until cumin seeds swell, about 30 seconds. Discard cloves. Add onion to the pot and saute until lightly golden, about 5 minutes.

  2. Combine tomato paste, curry powder, flour, turmeric, garlic powder, ginger, basil, allspice, and salt together in a bowl. Stir in 1 cup warm water.

  3. Pour tomato mixture over onion in the pot, stir until combined and thick. Stir in additional water until curry reaches a saucy consistency. Stir in garbanzo beans and bell pepper. Reduce heat and simmer curry, 5 minutes. Add green beans and peas, season with rice wine vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Simmer curry, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Add additional water if curry appears too thick.
