00:00:00

Many may not think that a curry can work in the summer! However, I have a super light vegetable base done for you that will beat the heat and bring it back into the kitchen instead of outside! Refreshing, tasty and perfect for those cosy summer nights, it’s just what you need when bored of the BBQs and the summer storms hit us!

Good Morning Lovelies, 


Curries are often seen as an autumn or winter food, as their warming elements help to heat us up from the inside out. However, I believe that they should be enjoyed all year round, which has led me to creating this delicious recipe for you lovelies! 


Using fresh vegetables, spices and a few creamy extras, this thick curry is great to enjoy on a breezy summer night. It’s time to crack out the bowls and spoons, as you will be tucking into this in no time…


Ingredients

One Medium Diced Carrot

One Small Chopped Courgette

1/2 of a Chopped Red Pepper

1/2 of a Small Diced Onion (Can Add More If Wanted)

One Minced Garlic Clove

1/2 Teaspoon of Grated Fresh Ginger

One Teaspoon of Mild Curry Powder

1/4 Teaspoon of Tumeric 

1/4 Teaspoon of Ground Cumin

A Sprinkle of Salt

Three Tablespoons of Greek Yogurt or Quark

Two to Three Tablespoons of Mashed or Instant Potatoes (Helps Thicken The Curry)

1/2 Cup of Vegetable Stock


Tools

A Nonstick Pan

A Mixing Spoon


Method

Start by using a nonstick pan to dry sauté your onion, using a splash of water to prevent burning. 

Cook until soft on a medium heat, then add in the garlic and ginger and cook for one minute more. 

Once ready, add in the carrot, courgette and bell pepper, then sprinkle in the curry powder, turmeric and cumin. Cook for one minute to toast the spices with the vegetables, stirring throughout. 

Pop in the mashed/instant potato and stir to coat everything before pouring in the stock. Leave to simmer, uncovered, for 15 to 20 minutes until everything is soft and the sauce is thick. 

When cooked, turn off the heat and allow it to cool for two to three minutes. Then add in the quark or yogurt to make it creamy. It is now ready to be enjoyed! 


This is great with rice, over a jacket potato or placed with summer flavoured breads! It even goes well with leftover baby potatoes from your BBQs! God curries really are fabulous aren’t they! I hope you like this one lovelies!
