Eleven Spice Curry

2017 Update: Due to a problem with Photobucket, see here, there will be a lot of recipes without photos. I will be slowly redoing the recipe pages, as best I can, but many other posts will be impossible to replace. I’m doing this in my own time, while continuing to update the blog with new recipes and posts. If you’d like to donate, any amount appreciated, you can do so here. The site will always be free, the recipes will never be locked behind a paywall, but this is a lot of additional work. I’m not demanding or begging, just putting it there so if you feel like repaying my hard work you have that option. I don’t make any money from the site, all that I do here is to help others, I couldn’t charge for that.

I’ve often lamented the loss of heat that nightshade intolerance brings, but learning that I can still create tasty, complex curries without chillies or tomatoes has been invaluable. There are so many ways to prepare food and if we let our focus narrow too much then we do the ingredients a great disservice. Nightshade free might mean the loss of traditionally flavoured curries, but it’s not the end of curry, not by a long shot.
