I find this curry a bit too soupy, and I actually like the

Cooking a bit better.
On the other hand, this one is simpler and involves less chopping,
so there's that. And it's still really tasty. I like it better
without the nut butter.

it's quite authentic but would work in a pinch.

to make it more meal-like, not just a side dish. I don't bother
measuring out the onion or pepper. And I use vegetable broth to
make it vegetarian.
