In between, I had started sharing a few microwave recipes, which you can refer to here. This is the last meal I cooked in the microwave by referring to this recipe, after which I have not tried because I found it easier to cook on the gas stove than otherwise. However, with the summers peaking and the kitchen becoming really uncomfortable to stand in, maybe I should be thinking about getting back to it! This is a delicious curry that doesn’t at all look or feel like it has been cooked in the microwave. It is delicious and would pair really well with a bowl of fried rice… Off to the way it is made…
