Today we are going to talk a little about curry. As we all know curry is a very aromatic yellow spice used in many Asian preparations; but not only that. In India, a curry is any spiced stew with sauce. It can be vegetables, meat or fish. This dish, in all its variants, is usually accompanied by boiled rice or bread, for example, the Naan.

It is a delicious dish and usually a little spicy since it is made with the famous curry paste. There are different colors: yellow, red or green, depending on the ingredients used. For this recipe, I used the green curry paste, but pay attention that is quite spicy. I have also used oat milk that can be made with this recipe. The curry version that I propose today is very easy and quick to prepare. It is a Vegan Eggplant Curry that I am sure you will love.

I await your opinions and do not forget to tell me on my Facebook page what recipes you would like me to prepare;)
