We're crazy about this complete, one-pot meal that's on the table in an hour start to finish, but tastes like it's been stewing all day! This hearty curry is a versatile recipe the whole family will love. The best part is that you can turn to it again and again and never tire of it, given its many variations. See the recipe notes for ways to sweeten it or spice it up. Or, devise your own curry pot, selecting favorite veggies or legumes to taste. The recipe's rich, yet still light coconut milk base, gives it an exotic base. Experiment with different types of curries: Indian, Thai, or a curry-based spice blend.
