This is a really quick and easy recipe.
Serve by itself on a bed of steamed rice or add a side of steamed vegetables.
This is one of thise dishes that is even better the next day. So why not make enough for two days.
Will keep in fridge for 3 days
Recipe by taste although I have made changes see note at the bottom
Original recipe sprinkle Almond flakes and coriander on top before serving. I feel it doesn't need it and is just an extra cost.
Original recipe also added 1/2 cup chopped dried apricots again it didn't need it and We preferred it without
This is a recipe for homemade Korma Paste.
