When i'm cooking meals I love the colours of naturals foods as well as tantalising smells which make you want to devour the dish as soon as it's ready. This dish certainly ticks these boxes for me with its wonderful array of greens and reds of the ingredients and the gorgeous aroma of the curry spices. This dish was yummy and very simple to make. Perfect for vegetarians or if you're like me and just prefer a meat free meal every now and then.

Here are a few notes I made about this recipe:

• Other veg that can be used is butternut squash, baby sweetcorn, mushrooms

• I used Tescos medium curry powder, but you can get spices milder or hotter versions in most supermarket.
• Remember to syn your ice if using this on a red day
