These recipes can all be interchanged with pork, beef, fish, and chicken or just keep it purely vegetarian. Serve your curry with lentils, chickpeas, rice and noodles, and don't forget those tasty nuts like peanuts, almonds and pepitas. Use these curry opportunities to add interesting vegetables that you wouldn't normally use. Eggplant, cauliflower, pumpkin, jalapenos, kale, okra, peas, spinach, and zucchinis. Most of these sauces can be loaded in to a slow cooker and simmered on low for hours.
