Oh my goodness. It’s so good. It’s done in a flash. It’s gone in a flash, too.
I find myself making this quick curry even when I have lots of time on my hands to cook. It’s just that tasty. If you’re pressed for time and are looking for a warm hearty meal, this is your friend. A humble dish that packs major flavor, all while filling the belly up in all of the right ways.
Quick cooking the cubed potatoes, with the lid on – allows for the potatoes to be very tender before pouring them into the curry base. The spices in this dish are dried versions of the raw ingredients I use in my normal timed curries, so the flavors are alive – just the same. I like adding the lime juice right before eating, to get the most out of the vitamin c.
I’ll sign off with this.
