Kenyan Vegetable Curry, I found this in the newspaper under recipes for a presidential inauguration party The caption was A vibrant Kenyan Vegetable Curry could please a president with African roots, as well as anyone who likes the way each vegetable keeps its distinct flavor when baked instead of boiled I don’t have a dutch oven, so I just did the first part in a large skillet then transferred the food into a casserole dish I love being a vegetarian!!!, I made this recipe almost exactly as written I did leave out the oil (cooking no fat) and only used a spray of olive oil This may have affected the final taste I was expecting an in-your-face, grab for the water, spicy curry and was surprised At first I thought this very bland, then I decided that the flavour was subtle I liked it The potatoes were on the edge of underdone, I would cut them smaller, say into bite-size cubes The portions are generous and filling for a main course We really didn’t need the rice I made as a side I think I would also allow more than 20 minutes for prep, but maybe I’m just a bit slower than superblondieno2 I would make this again, and might even take it to a potluck (I *won’t* say anything about the assumptions of the newspaper writer Maintain control, woman!), I found this in the newspaper under recipes for a presidential inauguration party The caption was A vibrant Kenyan Vegetable Curry could please a president with African roots, as well as anyone who likes the way each vegetable keeps its distinct flavor when baked instead of boiled I don’t have a dutch oven, so I just did the first part in a large skillet then transferred the food into a casserole dish I love being a vegetarian!!!
