Product Information

You can also serve it with an Indian flatbread, like a roti or a vegan naan ( gluten-free vegan naan recipe here). Koftas are typically eaten in central and south Asian countries. These are usually meatballs with local flavors, although given the distinctive vegetarian arc of countries like India, you are as likely to find meatless versions of koftas. The cuisine of Goa-- or rather the cuisines-- are just as diverse and delightful. Both the Hindus and the Christians cook a good deal with rice and coconut but they cook these ingredients up into vastly different dishes. Because Goa is along the coast, fish figures prominently in both cuisines, although Christians in Goa, whose food absorbed stronger Portuguese influences (because of large scale conversions by the colonizers), use pork just as frequently in dishes like Feijoada, Cafreal and Xacuti. The spices in this curry give it a unique, irresistible flavor. There are fennel seeds, which add sweetness and complexity--elements prized in Indian cooking. Some fenugreek seeds, for that undetectable, bitter yin that makes so many south Indian dishes so gorgeous. And, of course, coconut, because no south Indian cook worth his/her salt would leave it out. Garam masala: You don't absolutely need this, but a bit of garam masala stirred into the vindaloo toward the end of cooking adds more depth to the dish.

It is nourishing and vibrant. Despite the small ingredient list there are so many great flavors in this dish: salty, tangy, spicy and sweet. It will awaken every tastebud in your mouth. This spicy and easy Indian style Edamame Curry takes no more than 20 minutes to put together on a weeknight. It is full of flavor and freshness, and it's guaranteed to be an everybody-pleaser. There's not much to give you by way of instructions, because all you need to do is chop the ingredients roughly, then toss them into the blender. Tomatoes, onions, ginger, garlic, a few spices like coriander powder, paprika and/or cayenne, and garam masala, a handful of cashew nuts and a bit of kasoori methi all go in, get blitzed into smoothness, then poured into a hot pan with a little oil. Baby spinach or regular spinach (fresh or frozen. If using baby spinach no need to chop, but if using the larger spinach leaves chop them coarsely) If you love my easy vegetable curry that is ready in one pot in no time at all, or this vegan Indian curry with vegan meat, you will also love this 20-minute curry. It needs very little prep and tastes mindblowingly good.It's everyone-friendly. There are no gluten, soy and nuts in this recipe so you can make it for anyone. I would even call this curry a child-friendly recipe: it's vibrant with the spices, yet mellow enough with the coconut cream. The crisp carrots along with the al dente green peppers also make for a happy mouthful. Jay usually polishes it off although he did make a remark once about "too many veggies." 😉 It is creamy and comforting and will leave you feeling satisfied and healthy. Learning how to cook with lentils is a wonderful tool in your culinary arsenal because of how healthy they are. Dal with rice or roti is among the most nourishing meals you can eat. But this dish can also be eaten by itself, like a soup, and it's delicious that way.

There is a lot of garlic in this recipe because I love garlic in spicy Indian curries like this one. I add about five to six garlic cloves, crushed and sliced, when I saute the onions. Then more garlic goes in when I add a tablespoon of ginger garlic paste to the pot after the onions have browned. Coconut oil: Any oil is fine but if you have coconut oil use it here. It adds even more flavor and healthfulness.There is a common misconception that the "aloo" in "vindaloo" stands for potatoes. That's not only a bit simplistic, but "aloo" is a Hindi/Punjabi word for potatoes and not one used in Goa (where potatoes are called "batate" or "batato" in the local language, Konkani). Meat vindaloo recipes do not usually have potatoes in them, although I do frequently use them in my vegan version because hey, they are delicious. Ingredients for a vegetable vindaloo I make this with the curry powder I shared with you yesterday. A big advantage of having premade, flavorful spice mixes on hand is that you can really cut down on cooking time while keeping all of the flavor and complexity in your dishes. Spices: 4 green cardamom pods, which are the only whole spice added here and they add amazing flavor. ½ teaspoon turmeric, 1 teaspoon cayenne (use as much or as little as you like depending on your heat tolerance) and 1 ½ tablespoon curry powder. Use a really good curry powder, like my homemade recipe, because it will decide how delicious your curry is.

In the context of Indian food, "mince" or "keema" refers, usually, to mutton or goat meat that's been ground. Before a politically motivated ban on beef was imposed on most Indian states, it also included ground beef. If you are familiar with Indian cuisine and love a good dal, I've already shared with you some of my all time favorite Indian lentil recipes, including Dal Tadka, vegan Dal Makhani, Parsi Vegetable Dhansak, Rajasthani Panchmel Dal, Whole Masoor Dal and Spicy Urad Dal. heaping tbsp kitchen king masala (or garam masala. You might need less garam masala, so add a tablespoon at first, then add more if needed after tasting)

Sharing is Caring

It's friendly to all diets. This curry is vegan, of course, but it is also gluten-free, soy-free and free of nuts. You can adjust the spice level up or down, to your liking, and, like I said above, you can make it without any oil, if you wish. Also, unlike dry beans that need to be cooked until tender, fresh edamame beans can be allowed to retain their toothsome character in a curry, adding a rather pleasing pop of texture to the dish. This makes it, in my experience, kid-friendly. Or at least Jay-friendly. 😉 Dal can be made with one or a mix of several legumes, including toor dal, urad dal, chana dal, moong dal, and many more. All lentils are amazingly healthy, and combined with a grain like rice or wheat they make a complete protein.
