    An easy family favourite. I make this milder for my toddlers and add lots more veggies - try courgettes, green beans or peas. A great way of getting more vegetables into kids.

    This was delicious and so easy to make. I cut the peppers into smaller bite size pieces and added babycorn and tinned water chesnuts. Will make again for sure!

    Go easy on the curry paste though if you use the Barts one recommended.

    Amazing!! Def one for dinner parties as it only takes 30 mins from start to finish - guests would think you'd been slaving for hours! Beautiful dish, highly recommended!
