    1. That’s amazing! Glad you’re enjoying it! Swapping in curry powder sounds like a great twist—bet it adds a nice depth of flavour. Appreciate you giving it a go so many times! 😊

  1. I made this today but included 1tsp curry, threw in some unflavored yogurt, and topped with some fresh and crystallized ginger and chopped peanuts. It was fast, flavorful, and satisfied my craving

    I made this for dinner tonight and served it with wholewheat pasta. It was really nice and would be great as a cold pasta salad. I tempered the oil with cumin, fennel and mustard seeds and it really worked. Also threw in a small tin of sweetcorn. Thanks for sharing it, it’s going to become a favourite in our house.
