Before you start

Food processor | Large saucepan

For the curry base

  • Peel and roughly chop the shallots, garlic and ginger 
  • Deseed the chillis
  • Blend the shallots, garlic, ginger and chillis in a food processor until you have a smooth paste. You may need to add water to help the paste combine

For the curry

  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Once hot, add the curry base and salt and saute for 5-7 minutes until the delicious aromas are released. Add the curry powder, turmeric and cinnamon sticks are fry for a minute, taking care not to burn the spices. Pour in the coconut milk, 500ml water and the vegetable stock cube. Bring to a simmer and cook for 15-20 minutes so that the curry thickens
  • Stir through the maple syrup and roasted vegetables- we used parsnips, carrots, potatoes and brussel sprouts. Allow them to warm through

Serve

  • Add the juice of 1 lime to the curry. Taste and season to perfection
  • Serve the curry with steamy bowls of rice and a sprinkle of roasted cashews
