Tip
You can cut the carrot and zuchinni in the TM after preparing the spices but for a better result, cut by hand into even sized slices. Cut lengthways in half then 1 cm slices.
The recipe can easily be adapted to be vegetarian or to incorporate many other ingredients. The basic spice and curry prep steps would remain the same.
Let me now how you get along and any variations you dream up!
