We had one of my favorite students from last fall over for dinner tonight and made an Indian feast. This is one of my favorite curries and is very easy to do. I made both the curry and the cabbage while T was napping with no problem and both re-heated beautifully. We don't make traditional Indian desserts, but sorbet seems to serve well. I think this was enjoyed by all :)

Prep Notes
Difficulty: Moderate for the whole meal
Chopping: Garlic, ginger, onion, eggplant, cauliflower, cabbage
Time: 50 minutes
Make ahead: Both dishes are excellent left over.

Reaction
J: "If push came to shove, I would say this is our best curry."
M: "Indian fare for company!"
