I've become a real veggie fan, and tend to look for low fat veggie recipes. This is one of my favourite curry ones, courtesy of Rose Elliott's Vegetarian Meals in Minutes:

Mixed Vegetable Curry

1 onion ½ tsp turmeric
1 large carrot 2 tbs ground coriander
Frylight ¼tsp curry powder
1 potato (about 8ozs) ½ medium cauliflower
Knob of fresh ginger 4 ozs green beans
1 garlic clove salt + pepper
1 green chilli Fresh coriander, if available

Peel + chop onion; scrape + thinly slice carrot. Spray large saucepan with frylight, put in onion + carrot, cover + cook gently

Peel potato, cut into even sized pieces + add to pan (spray a little more if sticking, or add a teeny bit of water)

Grate ginger + crush garlic: deseed + chop the chilli. Add to the pan, along with turmeric, ground coriander + curry powder + stir well for 2-3 minutes to cover everything with the spices.

Add ¾ pint of water, 2 teaspoons of salt + grinding of pepper. Bring to boil, then simmer, covered, for 5 minutes

Meanwhile, wash cauli + remove leaves, reserving tender ones: chop these up. Break cauli into equal sized florets. Wash + trim the green beans

Stir cauli + beans into pan: cook for 7-10 minutes or until vegetables are tender. If mixture looks too liquid, turn up heat + let it bubble for a minute or two. Check seasoning + serve. Tastes really nice with fresh coriander snipped over the top.

P.S. If you really can’t be bothered with the spices, omit the turmeric, ground coriander + curry powder and substitute 2tbs of Schwartz Bombay curry spices – just as nice.
