Prawn and Vegetable Curry
I was given some Very Lazy Ginger to sample recently and decided to try it out in this Prawn and Vegetable Curry. I've only ever used fresh ginger in curries so was very interested to see how it would compare. The result - well you couldn't taste the difference and a definite plus point of the lazy variety is that the jar can be kept in the fridge for 3 months - no more mouldy ginger for me!
This is a very easy curry to pull together, perfect for a Friday night.
TOP TIPS FOR MAKING THIS PRAWN AND VEGETABLE CURRY
- Make it extra hot by adding a chopped red chilli.
- If you're not keen on prawns, use leftover roast chicken instead.
- The curry will freeze for up to 3 months so why not make double and freeze half.

I sometimes make my own lazy ginger! And garlic! Just chop 'em up in the food processor and add oil to stop it from drying out.
