Method
 

Cooking Steps
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease a baking dish with a dash of olive oil to prevent sticking.
  2. In a skillet, warm olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped sweet onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in minced garlic and cook until fragrant, around 1 minute.
  3. Mix in diced Yukon Gold potatoes and drained chickpeas, followed by smoked paprika, ground cumin, salt, and pepper. Stir until everything is evenly coated and combined.
  4. Pour in coconut milk or cashew cream, and blend thoroughly to ensure a rich, creamy texture throughout.
  5. Spoon the mixture into your prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
  6. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender and the top is golden brown and bubbling.
