INSTRUCTIONS
this is a variation on a recipe from Vegetarian Times - Curried
Vegetables In a skillet or wok heat water or oil and saute the onion,
garlic, and ginger root for 5 minutes. If you like to use white wine,
at this point I add the water and wine and let it simmer with the
onion mixture for 5 minutes. Then add the tomato paste, tomatoes,
curry, salt, and cayenne, simmer for a few minutes. I add a bit of
honey here to cut the tomatoes acidity...but honey isn't strictly
vegan. Add peas and mushrooms, bring to a boil, cover and simmer over
low heat for 5 minutes. Serve with rice. This is a big hit at
dinner parties and tends to convince even avowed meat-eaters. I would
advise that you get British-mix kerrie from the natuurwinkel because
I've noticed that the kerrie from Albert Hijn is not spicy enough.
