Nice recipe, thanks I enjoyed it
I’m so glad you enjoyed it, Isabel!
Hi.
The recipe looks delicious, but is it just me, or is there no curry listed in this recipe? Let me know if I’m missing something.
Thanks.
Hi Mary,
I’m not sure what you mean by there being no curry in the recipe? This is an Indian style curry made with a blend of spices to give a different flavour, it doesn’t need curry powder, if that is what you are referring to.
I hope that helps!
Can I use coconut milk instead of cream? What is Advantage of Coconut cream vs milk?
Hi Mary,
Coconut cream is thicker and contains more fat than then milk, it makes the curry more creamy without needing to add any dairy. You can use coconut milk instead, but your sauce will be thinner and not as creamy.
I hope that helps 🙂
