This is a staple across the Caribbean, and it earns its place on flavour rather than on being the vegetarian option. The curry is the same turmeric-forward Caribbean blend we use for our meat plates, finished with thyme and allspice. As the potato softens it releases starch, which thickens the sauce naturally and gives the dish real body.
Chickpeas bring the protein and hold their shape, so the plate does not turn into mush. Served with rice and peas it eats as a complete meal — and it is one of the few genuinely satisfying vegetarian options in Caribbean food in Edmonton. If you eat meat and want the same curry base, try our curry chicken plate.

Caribbean menus lean heavily on meat, which makes finding a proper vegetarian plate harder than it should be. This curry is cooked as its own dish, not adapted from something else, and it comes with the same rice and peas and side as every other plate we serve.
