Banging Easy Vegetable Curry (Chickens lil sis!)
Banging Easy Vegetable Curry! Named as such because it’s simply banging! It’s so good and full of vegetables!
(It also happens to be the ‘Chicken Curry to Die for’s‘ ickle sister 🙂 or if you’re SW it’s also SW Easy Chicken Curry sister too!
I do love a well balanced curry and this one is seriously good.
Just look at those colours!
And bonus it’s vegetarian too!
It has a lovely blend of vegetables.
I don’t know about you but I adore potatoes and cauliflower in a curry – yum!
This Vegetable curry recipe makes 4 large portions and at 4 Weightwatchers SmartPoints per serving you’ll be wondering why you never made it before!
And for SW it’s it’s 4 Syns for the Elmlea and skimmed milk (5) if you’re not using your Healthy A.
And 4 for the Paste So I make that 3 Syns per portion or 2 Syns per portion if you are counting milk as Healthy A!
RESULT!!
The Vegetables in your Banging Vegetable Curry
You can basically go for anything
I think potato & Cauliflower are a must as they sort of give your curry some body
Then just go colours!!
The Curry Paste for your Vegetable Curry
Now there’s a rule – I insist you use the below Curry paste.
It’s ‘not an ad’ at all but it delivers the best flavour in this dish. I have worked hard to get it working really well.
In this recipe I use 2 teaspoons and I’d say this is a medium curry hit. As it’s a creamy fragrant coriander type curry, it works well.
Don’t be put off by it saying madras – it’s nowhere near that heat!
Coriander / Cilantro for your Curry
And there’s a second rule to this recipe use FRESH coriander not dried – it simply doesn’t work!
Fresh Coriander is so fragrant and fresh, it’s my favourite herb.
In the US they call it Cilantro, so if you ever see a recipe that calls for it then you know you can substitute with Coriander
To Serve your Vegetable Curry
You could serve with:
Cauli Rice
Plain boiled rice
Mini Naan (Syns)
Or maybe onto of a Jacket Potato /- flipping delicious, I promise you!
Sometimes I also add more liquid and simply have it as a thick soup, so delicious?
Also I tend to double up and pop it in individual serving dishes / foils in the freezer! I love a bit of batch cooking.
It’s so lovely when you suddenly realise you have wonderful homemade curry in the freezer, especially on those busy evenings. And so healthy too

I would not use the Patak paste for less salt. Sub curry powder. Also Patak is not nut free if you have nut allergies as we do.
