Notes

  • Make sure the spices you are using haven't been sat in your cupboard for years. If you are using really old spices, they won't have much flavour and you will really notice a lack of flavour in the dish. Opened spices should be used within 6 months ideally.
  • You can use light coconut milk instead of full fat in this curry, but you won't get the same creamy flavour.
  • You can give this an extra protein boost by adding some quick cook lentils at the same time as the coconut milk.
  • Add some fresh coriander (cilantro) before serving to lighten it up a little.
