One pan, 20 mins, and you’ve got a frickin decent curry ready to be smashed!
It’s getting to that time of the year where hot comforting bowls of deliciousness are making their way to our tables, and this curry definitely fits the bill 🙌
This delish stick to your ribs sauce gets its thick creamy richness from a mix of blended cashews, coconut milk and almond milk. Delicately spiced to give it that authentic Korma flavour and tempeh being the perf sub for chicken.
It’s so quick, easy and flavourful which is EVEN better the next day if you can wait that long. Bunging it in the fridge the night before intensifies the flavours further, which also means dinners on your table in 5! Either way, its tasty af.
This was a huge hit at my Mumma’s birthday back in the summer, all meat eaters and regular curry goers loved it and they still talk about it now! Enough said.
