  • Courgette Curry

    Might come in useful when the glut comes Dead easy and quick as well.


    Process 3 tomatoes, 2 cloves garlic, pinch of fennel seeds in a blender to make a rough paste.
    Heat 3tbsp veg oil, add 150g chopped shallots or onions, cook for 5 mins. Add 250g sliced courgettes, 1/2tsp turmeric, 1/2-1tsp chilli powder, stir fry for 5 mins.
    Lower the heat, and add the tomato pasta. Cook, stirring, for 1 min, mix in 300ml coconut milk.Bring to the boil , then lower and simmer for 5 mins.


    *note - 1/2tsp = .5tsp, not '1 or 2'

    Sounds nice!

    Might be tempted to substitute tikka powder or madras spices for the plain chilli and add some sweetness such as an apple or a banana

    Thanks!
    The weeks and the years are fine. It's the days I can't cope with!

      Deffo sounds like something to try once the glut gets here. Do you know if it freezes?

      If at first you don't succeed, open a bottle of wine.

        It might persuade OH to eat courgettes. He loves curry, dislikes courgettes - I have three plants just sprouting ... ermmmm..... I'd be interested to know if it freezes as well, I suspect it will.

          I've made that Lesley. It's very nice - moist like carrot cake. However, it's probably more fattening than curry - unless you eat too much curry of course!

            We never have enough curry left to freeze any but if you leave the freshly made curry to 'mature' for 24 hours, the spices have time to do their work and really improve the flavour.
