Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. In a large saucepan, heat the coconut oil over medium-high heat. Add the ginger and garlic; cook until the ginger softens and the garlic begins to darken, about 3 minutes. Add the turnips and cabbage and cook, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage wilts, about 4 minutes.
  2. Add turmeric and 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and black pepper; stir to coat. Add chicken broth and 3 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until the turnips are tender, about 10 minutes.

  3. Add the chickpeas and chicken to the pot. Increase the heat to medium-high and bring the soup back to a simmer. Cook until the chicken is heated through, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste and drizzle with lemon juice. Serve with naan bread.
