Comfort food for me is curry. Being half Sri-lankan it’s in my roots that curry is delicious, nutritious and part of life. For me a good curry must include fragrant spice, vegetables and lentils. Or at least have those as side dishes. I’m not about the greasy, ultra spiced up meals with lots of sauce and no veg. Curry can be a great way to be creative with vegetables and give them a twist. It doesn’t have to be time consuming or complicated but it does have to be tasty.
Curry, on chilly days there is nothing like it to warm your bones. This is a mild, family friendly version that my kids loved.
We have a jar of chilli that sits on our table so the adults can zing it up if they want to. Being half Sri-Lankan, curry has to feature in our diet, but I’ve not really cooked it much over the summer. So with autumn drawing in, I’m back on the curry wagon. My hubby will be doing a happy dance right now.
In fact, this is how much my boy loved it! I think he managed to eat some 😉
