Garlic & Onion โ€“ This two healing combo is the must -have in a great curry. I love to first soften the onion and then add garlic. You can use any onion you have at home if it’s white, or red.

Zucchini – Zucchini is oneย  of the multiple vegetables, and it is perfect to add in this dish. Zucchini has a great benefits for us, for instance help to lose weight, improves immunity and keep our brain happy and healthy.

Coconut milk โ€“ mostly coconut milk is using in every curry dish to balance the spice hot.

Tomato pure โ€“ Tomato pure bring all ingredients good together. If you don’t have one at home, you can swap this ingredient for vegetables stock.

Ginger โ€“ Ginger is one amazing ingredient. Ginger can help prevent cancer, treats flatulence, reduces nausea and has anti-inflammatory properties.

Curry paste โ€“ I used red-hot curry paste. This is optional if you don’t like to spice food, you can still buy curry paste without spice.

Peanut butter โ€“ This dish is special for a great nuts flavor. I like to use peanut butter to set a good nuts touch. The other great option is almond butter.

Don’t forget to add Salt & Pepper !
