This was our best seller when we did our take home meals. Everybody LOVED it and we have decided to share the recipe so you can enjoy making this amazing curry at home. It’s one of the easiest recipes – it’s gluten free and dairy free as well. Literally throw it all into a pot or slow cooker and that’s it!

Notes
You can add any veggies you like to this curry. Pumpkin works well but takes longer to cook, so add it when you remove the lid.
