this worked out well despite lacking nigella seeds. i couldn't resist adding hot chilli powder and garam masala cos it needed a bit more heat imo.

another Meera Sodha recipe that looks awesome. Might induce a stroke in some ILXers by including a tin of baked beans!

i had to reconsider the difference bw u.s. and british baked beans but that looks inspired. calzino, what was that brussels dish in your previous post?

I really love the coriander/peanut chutney from that recipe, but my favorite Meera Sodha recipe so far is this one

off topic as far as curry goes:
I want to explore a vegan diet, but it seems very daunting. I’m liking Meera Sodha’s articles
for the tofu chili recipe I used serrano chilis in place of jwala finger chilis, since I can't find jwalas where I live and serranos are similar on the Scoville heat scale.
I now know that rapeseed oil is canola oil.
a question: what is corn flour? where I live there is no such thing as corn flour, it’s either corn meal, which is very coarse, or corn starch, which is very fine. I used corn starch for coating the tofu in this recipe

Re: that Sodha recipe, can I assume a brown onion (in the UK) is a yellow onion (in the US)?
I've never heard of a brown onion in four decades...

I think she has to be referring to yellow onions

i think she means cornstarch for the tofu? Getting corn flour for that seems unnecessary. Google says it's basically the same thing. But if you really wanted it they sell Bob's Red Mill stuff all over the world (don't recall where you are) and they do corn flour.
Making crispy tofu is one of my least favorite activities. I've tried some of the hacks people post online but right now I am enjoying being able to buy aburage (twice deep dried tofu) in packages nearby.
