Notes
Cook’s notes: We used Valcom Massaman Curry Paste. If you have an allergic child, be aware that many versions of curry paste include peanuts.
We used a packet mix of frozen vegetables from the supermarket that included baby beans, carrot and baby corn.
Freezer tip:
This curry freezes well, making it ideal to do a double batch. Cool completely. Transfer to an airtight container or snap-lock bag. Freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw in the fridge overnight and reheat slowly over a medium heat until hot.
