Easy 30-Minute Vegetarian Curry

This is a quick vegetarian curry you can whip up using any veggies you’ve got sitting in the back of the fridge at the end of the week. It’s also incredibly versatile.

If you don’t have Brussels sprouts, swap them for green beans. If you don’t have (or like) cilantro, swap it for baby spinach or fresh parsley. If you’ve run out of onions, use spring onion or shallots instead. And if you don’t have any curry powder, make your own with spices like coriander, fennel, turmeric, ginger, fenugreek and cumin.

This curry is vegetarian as written, and it can also be vegan if you cook with coconut oil instead of ghee. If you do want to add some meat, there’s an option for that, too!

Ingredients:

  • 1 brown onion, diced
  • 1/2 large sweet potato, diced
  • 1 carrot, diced
  • 4-5 brussels sprouts, quartered
  • 1 can (400ml/13.5oz) coconut cream (BPA- and additive-free)
  • 1 cup cauliflower florets
  • 2 Tbsp. curry powder
  • 2 Thai lime leaves (optional)
  • 2 cups bone broth or 2 cups water mixed with 2 Tbsp. bone broth powder or concentrate
  • 1 zucchini, diced
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 cup fresh cilantro, roughly chopped
  • Salt to taste
  • Grass-Fed Ghee or coconut oil for cooking

Instructions:

  1. Heat a large saucepan over medium heat and add in some ghee or coconut oil. Add the diced onion and cook until golden brown.
  2. Add the sweet potato, carrot, Brussels sprouts and Thai lime leaves. Cook for a few minutes.
  3. Add the coconut cream, bone broth, curry powder and cauliflower and simmer for 20 minutes.
  4. After 20 minutes, add in the diced zucchini/ courgette, broccoli florets and coriander. Give the curry a mix and allow to simmer.
