Tips

Try fresh chilis instead of powder but start with a small amount, if you don’t like it hot.

I could imagine than instead of cashews, almonds would be delicious as well.

Instead of diced tomatoes, unsalted tomato sauce or tomato paste can be substitutes.

Can I freeze this? Yes you can. Just use freezer bags, or containers which are properly sealed.

Other curries that you should try:

• Sweet Potato Curry
