EASY CURRY WITH VEGETABLES
This easy vegetable curry is a recipe that uses leftovers. You can vary the ingredients depending on what you have and prepare a spectacular stew.
These days at home, I suppose you’re realizing that sometimes we have no choice but to sharpen our wits.
When you don’t have many things left in the pantry, but you don’t want to give up a good spoon dish, one option is to give it a boost of flavor with spices. There are many options, but without a doubt an Indian-style curry is a good choice.
And as you already know, I told you about it in a previous post, I usually make my own Garam Masala, that mixture of Indian spices that adds so much flavor and can turn a plain recipe into something very special.
Easy vegetable curry is a recipe that makes leftovers, perfect for these days when we are at home.
In order to use this type of dish, you will need a basic pantry staple, which should consist of a good selection of spices, nothing unusual, they are all easy to find in grocery stores.
Another product that can be stored without problems is coconut milk and coconut oil, they are not essential, but they give the curry a different touch, a very pleasant sweet flavor and a denser texture.
With these basic non-perishable ingredients, you can now improvise stews like this one, full of flavor and texture.
Well, that’s what this recipe consists of: using the vegetables you have on hand to make a simple curry with coconut milk and a spice mix that can be garam masala or something else.
What I had in the fridge was pumpkin, at this time of year I usually always have onion, leek, and peas, so you know what the ingredients.
You can make a curry with vegetables, with legumes, with meat or with fish, there are many options.
A few days ago I shared this mushroom curry, a very similar recipe, but even simpler, it only has mushrooms and the flavor is incredible.
The idea is that you see that with some basic ingredients, spices and coconut milk, you can make many different stews, for example a curry with vegetables and chicken or a curry with fish, cod is ideal.
You can also make a red lentil or chickpea curry, there are options endless.
