African Curry – so quick & delish!

If you don’t have curry leaves… let us know… and we’ll pop some fresh freebie leaves into your next delivery! 🙂

This curry is so quick and easy to make. The end result is a very mild, slightly sweet curry with the cardamom and lime adding a subtle touch of spice and freshness.

TIP: Use the vegies that you know your kids will eat! Once you’ve got the thumbs up on the recipe… you can start getting a little more adventurous! ALSO – great for the Sunday night cook up (ie. using everything in your fridge before the next delivery!)

THANK YOU to Sonja Shradha Devi for this recipe found in a copy of her handwritten recipe book Yummy In My Tummy (discovered at the Mangrove Mountain Ashram).
