This one is proper special. We came up with this Goan-style curry when we were obsessing over the bold, tangy, coconut-rich flavours of the Indian coast and wanted to recreate that in a totally plant-based way. The curry paste is the heart of it, deeply spiced and fragrant, and the whole thing comes together in just 30 minutes which still amazes us every time. It's got that perfect balance of heat, sourness and creaminess that makes you want to go back for another spoonful before you've even finished the first. Make this tonight, we promise you won't regret it.
