    A new favorite! Ended up using curry instead of garam masala and was still delicious

    I didn’t use every spice the recipe called for and added a bit of curry. Came out great! Just did it to my taste.

    I ended up putting it in a blender and then adding coconut milk to it because it was very chunky and thick, it needed a lot more spices so I doubled up on the turmeric, coriander, and masala. It was good after all that

    Absolutely delish! Really I’m new to vegan trying this and that so I made half recipe just in case! I love it and today I’m making another batch so I can freeze some for later. I did put very little fresh chile but added Ortega canned dice chiles.
