There’s nothing like a warm, homemade meal on a cozy Friday night in! One of my go-to meals when I want something fast and comforting is my Ginger Peanut Curry!
It’s deliciously creamy, nutty, and has a perfect amount of zest from the fresh ginger. The best part is that these exotic flavors come together in under 30 minutes!! That’s faster than ordering take out and tastes way better than any restaurant-style curry.
Enjoy everyone!

The measurements and variety of the vegetables can vary depending on preference. Sometimes I add more or less depending how filling I want the dish and I switch up the veggies often. Also, the veggies can be fresh or frozen.
