Bring a drizzle of neutral vegetable oil to medium heat in a large pot. Add in the diced onion, and sauté for about 5-10 minutes.
Then, add in the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about one minute.
Then, add in all the other ingredients and stir or whisk until evenly combined. Simmer for about 20-25 minutes, partially covered, or until chickpeas are soft and curry has thickened.
