Notes
- To cut down prep time: You can buy pre-chopped or frozen vegetables (i.e., diced onion, prepared broccoli/cauliflower florets, etc.).
- Adjust the consistency: For a thinner curry, add more broth/water. To thicken it, add 1 tablespoon of cornstarch (in a slurry) and increase the heat, stirring until thickened. Repeat if needed.
- For richer flavor: Increase the amount of curry powder you add.
- To adjust the spice level: First, select a mild, medium, or hot curry powder. For more spice, add cayenne/ chili powder or red pepper flakes.
