Preliminary Tomato Preparation 
Step 1

Core tomatoes. 

Step 2

Drop tomatoes into a saucepan of boiling water, 10secs. 

Step 3

Hold tomatoes over a sink and pull off skins, they will come right off! 

Step 4

Cut tomatoes open, squeeze out and discard seeds. Coarsely chop remaining pulp.

Serving Suggestion:

Left-over tomato curry stays fresh in an airtight container, in the refrigerator, for 2-3 days.  

 

Top Tip:

Start cooking rice when you begin making the curry. This will mean the components of your meal are ready and hot at the same time. 

Curry prepared a day in advance is even better than that prepared on the day.  Cooking in advance allows the flavours to develop.  Tasty!
