Notes

  • Please note – you cannot replace curry leaves with curry powder – they are NOT at all the same things.
  • Also, you don’t have to eat the curry leaves, they just provide the dish with a ton of flavor 🙂
  • If you use cayenne instead of the Kashmiri chili, you’ll want to use a little less and you’ll want to add paprika for color.
