We've tried many curries for our boys over the years for easy dinners with mixed success. Trying to find the balance between warmth, flavour and texture can be really tricky but this one was an absolute winner. You can adjust the ingredients based on your kids' preference for a flavour punch and it really is super easy to make. 

We served the curry with some diced cucumber and tomato for added texture and freshness.
