Tomato and Cashew Curry

Anna + Em
We are LOVING our curries right now... give us the sniff of cool weather and we are slow cooking, eating soups and curries. This Tomato and Cashew curry is a new one, based on one we saw online, but we've added our own SSH tweeks (of course!). Curries are brilliant additions to your Meal Prep roster - so double the recipe and serve one now, and one later (freezes for up to 3 months).
