olive health editor's wellbeing tip
Here’s some January good cheer for foodies: it’s time to bring carbs back into the fold. Only 9% of us are eating enough fibre and should be reaching 30g a day (for adults), which research shows is linked to a lower risk of heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes and bowel cancer. While fruit, veg and pulses are healthy sources of fibre, so too are complex carbs like wholewheat pasta, brown rice, oats and other wholegrains like quinoa and rye. And, yes, a big, fluffy, comforting jacket potato counts too. Join our free 2025 wellbeing plan here.
Cook's tip
Bake the potatoes in your air fryer if you prefer. Follow the same steps and bake at 200C for approximately 45 mins until tender.
How to store
The curried chickpeas will keep for up to two days in the fridge in an airtight container. The baked potatoes will keep for up to two days in the fridge, wrapped in foil.
How to serve
Serve with a sprinkling of mixed seeds for extra crunch, or a boiled egg on the side for a protein punch.

step 1
Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Prick the potatoes all over, then rub with half the oil and season well before baking for 1 hr until crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside.

Meanwhile, heat the remaining oil in a large pan over a medium-low heat. Cook the onion for 8-10 mins or until soft. Season and stir in the garlic, ginger, curry powder and coriander stalks. Cook for 1-2 mins, stirring until fragrant.
-
step 3
Tip in the chickpeas (including their liquid) along with the sultanas, ground almonds and the coconut milk. Bring to the boil, then reduce and simmer for 20-25 mins or until thickened. Season to taste, then stir in most of the coriander leaves.
