Equipment

  • Saucepan

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon mustard seeds (optional)
  • 1 medium onion (thinly sliced)
  • 1 sprig (about 10-12 leaves) curry leaves (optional)
  • 8 oz cremini mushrooms or button mushrooms (or button mushrooms, sliced)
  • 5 oz baby spinach (or regular spinach. Chop regular spinach but you can leave the baby spinach whole. Frozen spinach is fine here, thaw before using)
  • 2 tablespoon curry powder
  • 14 oz coconut milk (canned)
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  • Heat the oil in a saucepan. Add the mustard, if using, and wait for it to sputter.
  • Add the onions and curry leaves, if using, and saute on medium heat until it sotens and becomes translucent.
  • Add the mushrooms and spinach and saute until the spinach wilts, which should take no more than a couple of minutes.
  • Add half the coconut milk and the curry powder with half a cup of water. Stir to mix and let the sauce come to a boil.
  • Add salt to taste and the remaining coconut milk. Warm the curry through at this point but turn off the heat before it comes to a boil.
  • Check salt and add more if needed.
