This is one of my favorite vegetarian dishes that packs a lot of flavor and nutrition. Curry can be served over rice or on its own. —Aubrei Weigand, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

I would not recommend making this recipe or following these instructions. The ratios did not make a curry substance and the cooking times did not come close to what was necessary to cook the potatoes nor green beans. This recipe seems rushed and the website is just crawling with advertisements.
