Hey,
I really love curries, and I wanted to make one for the whole family, so I decided to do this one and tone down the spices I would usually have.
We’ve had rice a couple of times this week, so I thought I’d mix it up with pasta, but feel free to use any side you like.
Babies under one shouldn’t eat shellfish, so I just left the prawns out for my son, but it was delicious for us! I also had mangetout in the curry, but feel free to swap it for any other veg you like – spinach is great in this recipe. And of course, this is also good to purée should you want to.
Love, Natalie x
