Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large flameproof casserole dish with a tight-fitting lid. Add the shallots with a generous pinch of salt and fry for 7-10 mins over a medium heat until softened and beginning to caramelise. Add the curry paste and chilli to the dish and fry for 2 mins. Tip in the squash and pepper, then stir through the coconut milk along with 200ml water. Add the lime leaves, cover and cook for 15-20 mins or until the squash is tender.
- Stir the mangetout and baby corn through the curry, then re-cover, cooking over a medium-low heat for a further 5 mins or until the veg is just cooked. Season and stir through half the coriander. Remove the lime leaves and discard. Spoon the curry into deep bowls, scatter with the remaining coriander and serve with rice and lime wedges for squeezing over.

Steps:
- Heat olive oil and butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add cumin seeds, cardamom pods, whole cloves, cinnamon stick, and bay leaf. Cook until spices start to sputter, about 1 minute.

VEGETARIAN KOFTA CURRY
Kofta curry - a saucy dish of gently spiced meatballs - is often made with meat. But this one, based on my grandfather's, swaps in a mash of beans. Bound with bread crumbs and seasoned with ginger, garlic, green chile and herbs, it's a variation full of flavor and texture. Have it with some flatbread and some sliced cucumber in yogurt, or spooned over a bowl of rice. It's also delicious in a sandwich the next day. Note: To make it with lamb, as in his original version, substitute 1 1/2 pounds ground lamb for the beans. Soak the bread crumbs in 1/2 cup whole milk first, then squeeze out any extra liquid before adding them to the mixing bowl.

Steps:
- Put the garlic, ginger and green chiles in a food processor, and pulse until you have a coarse paste. Put half the paste into a large bowl. Set the rest aside.
- Add the beans, spring onions, fresh herbs, bread crumbs, egg, garam masala, chile powder and salt to the large bowl with the paste. Mix well with a fork, mashing up the beans as you go into small pieces.
- Heat the oven to 400 degrees and line a sheet pan with parchment paper. Shape the mixture into 1-inch balls and arrange on the pan. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons oil, and bake until lightly browned, about 25 minutes. Set aside.
- Meanwhile, heat the remaining oil in a large skillet over medium. Sauté the onion until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining garlic, ginger and chile paste, and sauté until light golden brown, about 10 minutes. If using fresh tomatoes, purée them until smooth in the food processor. Stir the tomato purée or crushed tomatoes, coriander and cumin into the skillet, and simmer for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add the kofta to the skillet, and turn the heat to low. If necessary, add enough water for the liquid to come about two-thirds of the way up the sides of the meatballs, then simmer another 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the kofta are warmed through and the sauce has thickened. Season with salt and pepper, and garnish with a light dust of garam masala and some extra herbs.

VEGETARIAN POTATO AND CAULIFLOWER CURRY
I took my favorite parts of several different recipes to come up with this rich and flavorful vegetarian curry. I usually serve it with steamed rice, which can cook as the curry comes together. Sometimes I throw a few cardamom pods in when I steam the rice. It adds a great flavor. Don't forget to remove the pods before you serve the rice!

VEGETARIAN YELLOW CURRY
This is the best curry dish I have ever had. A Japanese roommate and I made it up in college on a dark winter night to avoid writing final papers out of the leftovers we dug up in the kitchen. The curry paste is easy to find in little cans at import stores, and you can add as little or as much spice as you want to the dish. It is both one pot and vegetarian. Serve over a big scoop of rice and garnish with peanuts, cilantro, and raisins.

ZUCCHINI "MEATBALLS"-VEGETARIAN CURRY - MADHUR JAFFREY
If you feel like a real vegetarian treat, this recipe is worth the time and effort. It's definitely not low calorie or low fat, but for a special occasion or dinner party, I have made it many times with rave reviews. This is from one of Madhur Jaffrey's books (World of the East Vegetarian cooking), with a few alterations. She mentions that in India they would use a more traditional long green squash, however since that's more uncommon in North America, the recipe calls for zucchini instead. I like more of the 'meatballs' than the recipe gives, so in the past I have doubled that part. Prep time may not be exact, however it does include the 1/2 hour when the zucchini sits. You can partially prepare ahead of time, see note below. Hope you enjoy!!

Steps:
- 'Meatballs'.
- Wash, trim and grate the zucchini - use the regular grate size on your grater, grating too fine may make it too soggy. Put into a bowl and sprinkle with the 1/2 tsp salt. Set aside for about 1/2 an hour.
- Once the zucchini has sat for about 1/2 an hour, squeeze out as much liquid as you can, using your hands or pressing through a fine mesh colander. Reserve the liquid you press out, it will be used in the gravy.
- Dry out the bowl and put the zucchini back in, add the minced chili, onion, ginger and 2 tbsp of the cilantro (reserve the rest of the cilantro for garnish).
- Sift the chickpea flour over the zucchini mixture. Mix well and form into about 20 balls. If they're too large, they won't cook well in the middle unless you fully immerse them in oil. I prefer to use as little oil as possible for frying, so I flatten them out a bit to make frying easier.
- In a skillet or wok heat about 1 1/2 inches of oil over medium heat. When the oil is hot, put in about 5 or 6 of the balls - or as many will fit in one layer with room around each of them. Fry for about 2 minutes, turning them until you get a nice even brown coat. I suggest you test one to get a feel for how long it will take to fully cook inside since it really depends on how large you make them, and how much oil is in your pan.
- Remove with a slotted spoon and leave to drain on paper towel. Continue with the rest of the 'meatballs', then set aside.
- 'Gravy'.
- Use about 5 tbsp of the oil from the frying and put into a skillet or saute pan. Heat the oil over medium heat and add onion once the oil is hot. Fry the onion for about 7 or 8 minutes, or until the onion begins to brown and become translucent. Take care not to burn the onion. Once cooked, take the pan off the heat for a moment and add the turmeric, cayenne, ground cumin and coriander. Stir and then return to the heat.
- Add the tomatoes and let that cook for about 5 minutes to combine flavours.
- Add 1 cup of the zucchini 'juice' -- if you are short, top up with water to reach 1 cup.
- Bring to a boil the lower the heat and let the sauce simmer gently for about 15 minutes. Up to this point, you could prepare the recipe in advance.
- To finish, (reheat if you have made in advance), add the cream, garam masala, roasted cumin and salt. (To roast the cumin, just put it in a dry really hot pan for a few minutes taking care not to burn). Mix sauce well and bring to a simmer.
- Add the 'meatballs' and gently spoon the sauce over them, trying not to break any of them. The meatballs turn soft in the sauce, so only cook enough to warm them through and then serve immediately with basmati rice and/or roti or naan bread. Garnish with the reserved fresh cilantro and cashews if using.

MADRAS VEGETABLE CURRY (VEGETARIAN)
Altho I did not choose this vegetarian dish from the cruise menu, I found it in the *Carnival Creations* cookbook by Cyrus Marfatia (Exec Chef of Carnival Cruise Lines) & see it as a fine example of the great care taken to provide tempting vegetarian choices across all courses for the vegetarians on-board the ship. The recipe intro description stated that "An assortment of distinctive spices makes this Indian vegetable dish dance with tremendous flavor" & it was later suggested that it be served w/cinnamon-flavored cooked rice which I see as an esp appealing option. (Times were not given, so I estimated 20 min for ingredient prep + 20 min cook time). *Enjoy* !

VEGETARIAN YASAI KATSU CURRY (WAGAMAMA STYLE!)
Steps:
- 1. Cook your rice, according to instructions on the packet. 2. Slice the butternut squash and boil slices soft (not too soft or they will fall apart. Drain and set aside to cool. 2. Grind the bread crumbs and crackers together. Beat an egg. Set to side. Keep the flour ready (mix in spices if desired). 3. Make the curry sauce, either by mixing your spices with some water and cooking for 15 mins (adding more water if required) until you reach a desired creamy texture. Alternatively, cheat and buy a packet of ready made curry sauce in the store. 4. Heat vegetable or light olive oil in a frying pan. 5. Dip the slices in the flour mix, then egg, then breadcrumb mix. 6. When you have 4 slices ready, start frying. Make sure the oil is hot to give a crispy texture but that it does not burn. 7. When ready, place on paper to drain excess oil. 8. When all slices are done, invert a cup of sticky rice on a place, serve with a few fried slices and pour curry sauce over. I usually add a green or red vegetable or sallad that I have home to give some colour too.
