While this curry may be on the sweet side, it can still pack a punch if you want it to. We've done a couple of different variants, one that requires a lot of prep of a base curry sauce (Dan Toombs - The Curry Guy).

We'll eat curry at least once a week and we make them all from scratch. It's become a bit of a joke as every curry seems to taste different and I'm sure we use the same base ingredients all the time. It kind of makes it hard to write a recipe but here goes.
