A good curry is such a great comfort food…making it one of the most popular take-away.
Unfortunately, your normal take-away curry is likely to leave you feeling heavy, bloated and maybe even sitting on the toilet all night...
However, make your own, and you have a superb anti-inflammatory meal!
HEALTH BENEFITS
Turmeric and ginger are amazing anti-inflammatory spices.
Cumin and coriander are excellent for digestion.
Homemade chicken broth is soothing for the gut and packed full of healing goodies 😉
I’m salivating just thinking about it… yummo!
INGREDIENTS
- 3 tablespoon coconut oil
- 1 onion, diced
- 2 garlic cloves, crushed
- 1 thumb size piece of ginger, finely grated
- ½ tablespoon ground turmeric
- ½ tablespoon ground cumin
- 1 tablespoon ground coriander
- 1 stalk lemongrass, lower third finely chopped (or you can just hit the stalk a few times with the back of a knife to release the essential oil and put it whole in your pot. Just remove it at the end of the cooking .)
