Notes for food services:

• This recipe produces a fairly thin sauce similar to Thai curries.  For a thicker sauce thicken with corn flour- Simply wet the corn flour with a little water and slowly add to the simmering sauce stirring constantly until the desired consistency is reached.
  • This is an easy curry to make and you can easily substitute any of the vegetables for ones you have available.
