This curry went down very well in our house, and is another of those dishes thats great the next day, which is good now things are busying up again with my culinary classes, and joining a new bike team.
I switched out a lot of things and it was still good. Hubby says he'd like it with sultanas in, which is a bit of a surprise, I guess then it would totally be an old fashioned curry. Maybe I should add chopped bananas on the side like granny used to!
Nutritionally its absolutely fantastic, lots of protein, some complex carbs, lots of veggies and the fat free greek yoghurt to make it creamy is full of calcium.
This made enough for 5 dinners for us.
