Right when we were in the middle of Summer heat here in Wellington, we made a quick jump to Autumn and it has been cold and raining and we have had to turn on the heat pump and bundle up. Its looking like shopping for winter clothes might have arrived sooner than I thought and I will be making more curries and pulling out that slow cooker too :)
If you are in the mood for a curry, this curry, which is vegan by the way, will be an excellent choice to make. Very easy (as my other recipes) and the curry is just yum! I like how the flavours aren't over powering or spicy to make you cry - its mild and easy to eat even if you hate spinach!

Welcome to my Blog The Eaterspot. My blogging journey began in March 2010. I had just relocated from the US, and living in Wellington, New Zealand was definitely a whole lot different from the US. The day after I landed here, I began a full time job, but I still had a whole lot of free time after 5pm. I was cooking a lot of new dishes from various cuisines so the blog was born to document my cooking for my friends and family to follow what we are upto as a newly married couple and to see what we were eating!Thanks for visting my spot!
