Vegetarian Bean Curry image

This is a basic recipe that you can play with for seasonings and ingredients. My first batch was good, but since then I've experimented with more or less spice, other veggies like mushrooms, and meat. It's different every time I make it now. Serve over basmati rice with naan bread.

I'm not a fan of curry, but I thought this recipe was pretty good. The beans were cooked perfectly, and the sauce was very flavorful.

This curry is a bit spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think next time I'll use less chili powder.

I'm allergic to nightshades, so I made this curry without the tomatoes and potatoes. It was still delicious!

This curry is a great way to use up leftover beans. I always have a can or two of beans in my pantry, and this is a great way to use them up.
