I was pretty excited to make this dish because we like curry things, which is why I chose it. I had gotten some veggies for an excellent price last week so this weekend I decided to cut them up to make the meal prep a little faster. If you ever watch Robin Miller’s shows she is all about this, so I thought she would be proud.
I prepared the recipe as it was written except I added more celery and carrots then it called for. I also forgot to get the fresh ginger so I had to use powder. I am sure the fresh ginger would have been much better. I will have to get some to keep in the freezer as Nika suggested. My coconut milk was actually pretty runny, I thought it would be thicker. In the end I felt like it was a little too runny and maybe next time I wouldn’t add quite so much broth. I also did not follow her cook times exactly and just cooked each part until I felt it was done.
I usually do not use instant rice but as it turned out our big bag of rice was gone so I mixed some instant brown rice with some leftover white rice from the fridge. Sean and I both really enjoyed this dish, but wished it was just a little thicker.
We ate it on plates but Sean thought he might have enjoyed it even more if he had it in a bowl so he could enjoy the extra broth (his words). We have quite a bit of leftovers and I already enjoyed some more for an early lunch!
Last night we went to Cold Stone for Sean’s free birthday ice cream so we will be trying to fruit crumble tonight!

Excellent review and the dish looks very tasty. I am glad you and Nika have tried and reported on the recipe so the rest of us can adjust as needed. I think I will add more veggies too and maybe a little less broth. I am looking forward to trying the recipes out.
Thanks for the tips on the broth and veggies. I will try and adjust. Also, good job on the meal prep! That will probably never happen at my house :)
