Quick wins & tips

In this recipe you freeze only the sauce, so we have included enough spinach and seafood in the ingredients for just the fresh curry. You will need to buy the same again to finish off the frozen curry.

To cook the frozen sauce, defrost completely overnight, tip into a pan, then warm over a gentle heat. Finish the recipe, then serve.

Can the sauce be made the day before, reheated the next day and add fish etc …?

I love this recipe because my hubby likes it because, well, it’s a curry. The kids like it because it’s tasty and they get to have poppadums and I like it because I can add fish to their diet.
