Vegetable Curry
Curry is now, apparently, the national dish of the UK because it's the most popular. When making it at home, it's quick and easy. This recipe uses garam masala, now quite easily available in supermarkets but, if you can't find it use curry powder instead. Putting garlic in curry gives it a depth of flavour without overpowering it.Print this recipe
