Author Notes
This curry, which happens to be vegan, is adapted from one of Madhur Jaffrey’s cookbooks. If you are not familiar with her, she is an Indian-born food and travel writer, who is credited with introducing Indian cuisine to the West in the 1970’s. This delicious curry is an easy weeknight meal that also happens to be vegan! The warm, aromatic spices imbue wonderful deep flavor, and the mushrooms add a lovely creaminess. Try it over a bed of rice or with a side of chapathis! —maryanne
