Notes

Experiment with ingredients by using evaporated milk or adding extra veggies like bell peppers. Toasting curry powder before use can elevate the dish. This curry tastes better the next day; consider making it ahead of time and reheating. Feel free to adjust spices based on your heat preference or dietary restrictions, such as making it vegan by using tofu and plant-based milk.
