Notes

If the curry is a little too thin tip a stirred mixture of 2 tbsp of corn flour and 4 tbsp cold water into the pot and leave to simmer 5 minutes or so.
Add chopped dried apricots or sultanas and some flaked almonds if you like them.
Add hotter curry powder if you prefer it.
You can use reduced fat yoghurt but it will not be as creamy and maybe thinner.
Once cooled and covered it can be frozen for yet another quick mid-week meal.
This recipe can also be cooked on the hob over a gentle heat for 1-2 hours. Stir from time to time.
This recipe too can be cooked in the oven in a 150 C/300 F/Gas Mark 2 for 2 hours in a casserole pot with a lid.
