Vegetable Korma

Friday, November 12, 2010

After a less healthy lunch yesterday my husband and I were craving some veggies for dinner.  So we had an Indian inspired vegetarian/vegan korma.

I found that the turmeric really adds some complexity to the flavor of this dish. I prepared it with brown rice but I think basmati would be even better. :) Of course you could always adapt the recipe for carnivores by tossing in some chicken. :)

Please feel free to leave a comment! I'd love to get some feedback from you guys!  :)
