Notes
Flavours - This is a sweeter curry and not too spicy. If you prefer, you can add a little more heat with dried chilies or even fresh.
Sauce thickening - When this finishes cooking, give it a really good stir. If the sauce is on the thin side, you can thicken it up. Add one tablespoon of corn starch with two tablespoons of water to a small glass. Stir to combine. Pour a little into the curry and stir and add accordingly how thick you would like your sauce.
Serving suggestions - I feel any sauce based curries go great with Basmati rice and Nann bread.
