          - bite-sized pieces
   250 g  Coconut yogurt (1 c)
   1/2 ts Chili powder
   1/2 ts Ground coriander
   1/2 ts Ground cumin
     1 tb Garam masala
     1 ts Ground turmeric
     1    Green chile; finely sliced
     4 cl Garlic; minced
   1/2    Lemon; zest of
     4 tb Olive oil
     1 ts Sea salt
     3 tb Olive oil
     1    Onion; finely chopped
     4 cl Garlic; minced
     1    Fresh ginger piece
          - (thumb-sized); minced
     1    Chile; finely chopped
   1/2 ts Sea salt
     1 ts Ground cumin
     1 ts Ground coriander
   1/2 ts Ground turmeric
     3 tb Tomato paste
   170 g  Chickpeas (1 c);
          - canned or cooked
    20 g  Toasted coconut flakes
          - (1/2 c)
   400 g  Can of coconut milk (14 oz)
     2    Big handfuls baby spinach
          - leaves

 Beets give this curry its deep color and gentle sweetness, balanced by
 creamy coconut and spiced chickpeas. It's a rich, one-pan meal that's
 both hearty and nourishing.

 Preheat your oven to 230°C / 210°C fan (450°F/Gas Mark 8).

 Mix together the marinade ingredients in a large bowl, then stir
 through the beets. Transfer to a baking tray and bake in the oven for
 20 minutes, or until the beets are tender.

 Meanwhile, for the curry base, place a large saucepan over a medium
 heat and add the olive oil. When hot, add the onion, garlic, ginger,
 and chile, and cook slowly and gently for around 8 minutes. This will
 allow the onions to release all their sweetness, adding depth to the
 curry.

 Season with the salt, then add the ground spices. Cook for a further 2
 minutes before adding the tomato paste, chickpeas and coconut flakes.
 Mix well, then add the roasted beets.

 Deglaze the pan with the coconut milk, stirring well. Let the curry
 bubble away for 15 minutes, stirring through the spinach just before
 serving.
