At this time of year, there’s probably nothing better than a tasty shrimp curry. Indian dishes, with spice mixes that perfume the air, are generally healthy, and can be relied upon to warm up our taste buds.
This mouth-watering shrimp curry takes no time at all to prepare – and you’ll get great left-overs, too! Coriander leaves and dried cranberries add a fresh touch, and peanuts add some crunch. The flavours are nothing short of sublime!
If you’re not fond of shrimp, this recipe is just as good when made with chunks of salmon, tofu, white fish or chicken.

Organic Dried Cranberries Sweetened with Apple Juice and Sliced
