Apple Cashew Curry With Coconut Rice

This is one of my favourite dishes... vegan friendly too!

Ingredients
1 cup jasmine rice
1 can coconut milk
3 fresh lime slices
cilantro
cashews
broccoli
1/2 can baby corn
1 granny smith apple sliced
olive oil
2 tablespoons red curry paste
cumin
salt
garlic powder
onion powder
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon fresh chopped ginger

1. Cook the rice with half water and half coconut milk.

2. Heat olive oil in frying pan. Add cashews, broccoli, apple slices, and corn.

3. Slowly stir in remaining coconut milk. Add ginger, red curry paste, brown sugar, cilantro and squeeze 2 of the lime wedges in. Add cumin, salt, garlic powder, and onion powder to taste. You might even want to add more curry paste depending on how strong you like it!

4. Let simmer until flavours are well blended. Serve rice separate from curry and topped with a cilantro twig and lime slice!

Harvest Curry - Vegan Friendly!

This warm and spicy curry is the perfect meal for those particularly grey days. Incorporating harvest vegetables makes this not only delicious, but cheap too. Did I mention it's vegan friendly as well!?

Ingredients
acorn squash
butternut squash
pumpkin
yam
lentils
curry paste
cumin/tumeric/salt
almond/soy milk
olive oil
ginger

1. Chop the squash, pumpkin, and yams into bit sized pieces. Heat some olive oil in a pan with some diced ginger and add the chopped veggies. Fry for several minutes until the veggies are well cooked and soft.

2. Add almond milk (I don't use measurements when cooking certain meals, I tend to go by taste and also by amount of people I'm cooking for. Just use your best judgement and taste as you go along!)

3. Stir in a couple spoonfuls of curry paste. I like my curry extra spicy so you may not use as much as I would. Just add it slowly and keep tasting. I also add extra cumin/tumeric powder and a pinch of salt!

4. Once the curry is well mixed with the veggies and almond milk, stir in the the lentils. Let simmer until flavours have blended well and the curry has thickened up.
