On the list of meals that are my favorite, one-pot meals and savory curries are both on my list for the cool winter months. This slightly sweet and savory curry fits the bill! It only requires one-pot, takes less than a half an hour to make and it’s packed with plants- which I know we could always use more of, in the winter months, just by nature of rich casseroles and meaty stews.This recipe makes enough for the four of us, but it’s simple enough to double or triple for a crowd. Don’t forget the garlicky naan bread- or a hearty loaf of GF, if gluten isn’t your thing; it lends well to dipping!
