While the recipe calls for a lot of ingredients, most of them are spices you probably already have on hand + a ton of fresh vegetables that are currently in season. I love to cook this recipe as is, but it’s also really good if you add some chopped cherry tomatoes and some fresh bell peppers.

Most people think of vegetarian curry as a winter or fall dish, because it’s warm and spicy and comforting. However, I actually prefer to make it during the summer months because that’s when all the vegetables used are in season.

 

¿How long does it takes to make vegetarian curry?

Making this vegetarian curry takes around 20 minutes from start to finish. The veggies used here cook really quick. You can also add some shrimp or chicken or even some cooked chickpeas to amp up the protein. If you decide to go that route keep in mind it will take longer to cook. Here’s also a delicious shrimp curry recipe that’s a family staple in our house.

And we need to talk about coconut milk. The coconut milk is really what brings this vegetarian curry together. It also keeps all the flavors balanced. On one side, you have the spices (think curry and coriander) and on the other the sweetness of the coconut. I highly advise you use canned coconut milk for this recipe. Canned coconut milk it’s creamier and has more body, which makes this curry even more delicious.

I love to serve vegetarian curry over rice. Curry and rice are a match made in heaven. However, this is also really delicious served on top of noodles or just by itself with some naan bread on the side.
