Veggie Curry with Butter Naan

Preparation

Curry

Chop the onion, garlic and ginger in fine pieces and fry in butter for 10-12 minutes at low heat. Add curry paste and keep frying for an extra couple of minutes. Add water and coconut milk, and put the lid on. Peel the carrots and cut them into angled pieces. Put them in the pot together with cauliflower and simmer for a few minutes. Turn in the spinach and let them soften.

Mix in the salt, sugar and lime juice. Serve with fresh coriander and cashews sprinkled on top.

Naan Bread

Start by dissolving the yeast in lukewarm water. Add sugar, salt and yogurt and stir it together.

Alternately add flour and melted butter (save some butter for topping), and stir it till it becomes a smooth dough. It takes about 10 minutes to make the dough nice and elastic.

Cover your dough with a dishtowel and let it rest for 30 minutes. Divide the dough into smaller chunks and roll them flat and oval. Let them rise for 10 minutes and press holes in the dough with your finger or with a fork. Sprinkle with salt and heat up a pan. Bake them for 5-7 minutes on each side until they become golden. Mix cumin and garlic with melted butter and brush the Naan bread with the seasoned butter. Sprinkle with salt at serve.
