Instant Pot Butter Potato Chickpeas. This Indian dish is flavourful, filling and vegan! It is the perfect meatless meal for dinner and great as leftovers!
This is one of my favourite ways to have chickpeas. Smothered in a variety of spices that are aromatic. I love the creamy texture of the potatoes in combination with the legumes. They pair so well together.
If you’re not a big fan of chickpeas, like me, this is the way to eat them! I find that they are delicious in Indian Butter sauce or in a curry form. The sauce really breaks down the texture of the chickpeas and the spices mask the smell that chickpeas give off.

For this recipe
You’ll need the following ingredients:
5 medium yellow potatoes, peeled and quartered
1 can organic chickpeas
3 tbsp vegan butter
8 cloves garlic minced
1 cup tomato sauce
2 tbsp tomato paste
3 tsp garam masala powder
1 tbsp ground coriander
1 tsp cumin ground
1 tbsp smoked paprika
1 tsp turmeric
1 tsp of ginger powder or fresh minced ginger
1 tsp salt
1 cup water
1 cup cashew cream (1/3 cup raw cashews blended in 1/2 cup hot boiling water)
2 tbsp parsley chopped
Do I need to use an Instant Pot?
No. You may use a normal pot but you will have to adjust the time so that the potatoes and chickpeas are cooked through and this will require you to check the softness of the potatoes every now and then. It should take roughly 30 minutes to cook down.
