NEW Curry Side Dish has Launched...

Mum and I hate waste, so at the end of each week we clear out the fridge and make something from the leftovers. One week when I was cooking a curry, I had half a cabbage and some green beans that needed using up. I wanted to make a dryish dish to go with the main curry and threw in a few spices, some garlic and coconut flour for texture.

All I can say is that it went down a storm at the table that night. Luckily I jotted the ingredients down that I’d used. We all agreed that it didn’t need tweaking at all, which is a first to be fair.

We were so keen to get it out to you all, so less than a month later we bring you our ‘Coconut Spiced Veggies’.

Mum and I hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Why not try these delicious combinations:

• Cabbage and green beans

• Potatoes and peas

• Okra and spinach

• Grated carrot and cauliflower

Meat Free Monday's

I know that more and more of us are making attempts to eat less meat. Some have taken steps to become vegetarian or even vegan. What ever your reason for eating less meat may be, here at Curry with Love, we have some great, meat free recipes for you to try at home.

Our Lentils with Garlic & Chilli kit makes an amazing and healthy lunch.

Goan Curry isn't just for fish. It works really well with green and orange veggies too. Try a combination of butternut squash, green beans & spinach. If you can get hold of coconut vinegar (we sell it in the shop), you can use this instead of the white wine vinegar. The flavour is amazing.

Curry with Love is a fusion of Indian and Thai flavours. We ask you to add Thai fish sauce to the curry, but you can add soy sauce or tamari if you prefer. We sell this one in our frozen range with sweet potato, butternut squash, spinach and cashew nuts. It's a sell out each week.

Slice a trio of peppers (red, yellow and green), pop on a baking sheet along with some cauliflower florets, and drizzle with rapeseed oil. Pop in the oven for 20 - 30 mins, until nicely roasted and slightly charred around the edges. Add this to the Jalfrezi sauce with a tin of chickpeas. Healthy and delicious.

Aubergines, potatoes and Seitan will work a treat in any of the tomato based curries. If you want to try and squeeze in some extra veggies, you can add some fresh chillies, onion and tomatoes too. I like to quarter the tomatoes and pop them into the cooked curry sauce about 10 minutes from the end. They break down just enough to become soft and sweet. 

Remember...Jackfruit is great meat free alternative and will work well in any of our main curry kits, whether tomato or coconut based. Cook it until you can pull it apart with a fork. 

Happy cooking everyone, and here's to a healthier summer...Enjoy
