Soya Chunks Curry
This is one of the best protein alternative for vegetarians. It is also called "vegetable chicken". It has both protein and omega-3 replacing chicken and sea foods. To be frank, soya chunks curry is an acquired taste for me. My husband likes it a lot. For me I can eat it only when cooked with vegetable biriyani. But this time with minor changes to the cooking process, the gravy was tastier and we liked it.

Umami-Packed Beef Tendon Curry Umami-Packed Beef Tendon Curry
A good stock comes out of beef tendons, so I tried using it in curry.A curry specialty shop makes this a week in advance, but that is difficult todo at home, so I just let it sit overnight. Letting it sit for even just a night will change the mildness etc .Please use a pressure cooker to shorten the cooking time for those of you that have one. Please slowly cook it as written for those of you who don't.It says to boil for 30 minutes, but please cook for longer if the beef tendons are hard when you poke them with chopsticks . For 2 people.

Chicken Makhani - Butter Chicken Curry Chicken Makhani - Butter Chicken Curry
I received a request for this curry's recipe, but it's a curry usually served at restaurants (i.e. not a home-cooked dish), so I tried to make it based on my past experiences eating it, and some research I did with books and the Internet. I aimed for these 3 things: 1. not covered with oil, 2. as healthy as possible, 3. a satisfying taste. I managed to create this dish after some experimenting with spices, etc. I don't mean to brag, but it's fantastic.If you substitute the chicken with bite-sized paneer, this will become a vegetarian recipe.If you substitute the chicken with bite-sized paneer, this will become a vegetarian recipe.The tartness of canned tomatoes should be reduced if you simmer them well.

Indian Home-style Curry with Potatoes and Chickpeas Indian Home-style Curry with Potatoes and Chickpeas
This is a curry made regularly at my home in India, and so I recreated that home-style flavor. An everyday curry is modest in its spiciness. I made this to celebrate my one year anniversary of joining Cookpad late last March, bringing myself back to the initial humbleness of introducing a home-style curry. :)- Prep the chickpeas to the state where they can be cooked. Using canned peas in water is convenient too. Soy beans would be tasty too.- In regards to how to adjust the spiciness and how to find out the spiciness you prefer, please refer to my diary from June 2010. Then, add the spices accordingly with the Steps described. For 2 large servings. Recipe by Plabar -

Chicken and Chickpea Curry Chicken and Chickpea Curry
It was 100°F (38°C) when I made this mildly spicy, hearty dish in a futile effort to summon Autumn 😂. Yes, it’s probably better suited for Fall, but it has an amazing flavor and is nutritious, too! I didn’t think my young daughter would like it, but she did!The ingredient list looks a little long, but don’t let that deter you. The prep is fairly easy and it comes together quickly once you have the ingredients ready. This recipe is definitely going into my regular rotation.Note: You can make this dish vegetarian by omitting the chicken and adding another can of chickpeas.This recipe was modified from “The Real Food Dieticians.”#GlobalApron - Week 24.

Curry-Not-Curry Chicken Breasts Stew with Potatoes Curry-Not-Curry Chicken Breasts Stew with Potatoes
I had a bit of ginger, lemongrass and green onions left and loads of curry powder so, what did I do? I modified it to make a non-spicy curry-sort-of. The tangy stew can be served with a fragrant rice and side vegetables for just about any meal of the day. Well, maybe not breakfast? XD It's great for people who likes something to perk up their taste buds but don't really relish the idea of eating TOO SPICY food. Great balance between sweet, salty and spicy.
