Fall’s Favorite Curry

November 7, 2008
by Chocolate-Covered Katie
My proclivity for not following recipes can be both a positive and a negative; some of my experiments turn out amazingly well, whilst others go horribly wrong. Today’s dish is definitely an example of the former. True, it may be filled with “B” ingredients (broccoli, butternut squash, bell peppers…), but as far as taste goes, Fall’s Favorite Curry gets an A+! (Recipe here)
Photos:
(With a border of spinach and a side of bulgur pilaf)

(Up close and personal)

(With Lightlife chick’n strips, vegan-buttered toast, and some pistachios)

(More toast, spinach mixed in, and some leftover smoked tofu I wanted to use up)

I’m going to be mean and make you wait until my next post for the recipe… actually, it’s not because I’m mean but because I need to go write an essay. So if anyone is mean, it’s my history teacher. (But in reality she is a very nice lady!) 

EDIT: Recipe can be found here.

    I can’t wait for the recipe for your curry! I love all of the ways that you served it and I’ll keep that in mind next time I make curry.

    I’m fairly sure I’ve never had a craving for buttered toast before… in fact, I hate putting butter on bread for any reason, save for garlic bread… but, it sounds really good right about now. Weird.

    Everything looks yummy.

    I just read a ton of your recipes and your profile and I wanted to comment because I am also a 22 year-old college senior in Texas. I’ve only been a vegan for about 8 months, but I agree that it is so rewarding. You make everything look so easy and delicious!

    So… You want me to be your personal chef? and how am I supposed to cook something better than this A+ curry?! :-D . Ah, if it weren’t so difficult to get a visa…I’d be right there! For lunch!

    Gosh, that curry looks mighty delicious!! It might be a good idea to point out which brand of curry powder you use (coz the one that I bought is oh so horrible) …

    Btw, don’t ya know that I’m impatient?!! … and yet, you want ME to wait till the next post for the recipe?!? Geez, I wonder who is the mean bean here :)

    i love me some curry, and that looks great! my problem is getting my curries to taste different. all of mine tend to taste the same. my friend mari says curry is really hard to perfect because so many ingredients go into it.

    That is the most visually pleasing dinner ever! Like a delicious, veggie filled mock-pizza. I am anxiously awaiting the recipe. :)
