The family are loving roasted vegetable curry at the moment and I make it at least once a week.
Roast the veg for around an hour in a dash of olive oil (onion, carrot, parsnips, potato, cauliflower, broccoli), chuck in a pan with a couple of tablespoons of curry paste, some coconut milk, simmer for 10-15 mins, and it's done. Usually serve with rice or naan bread.
My question is, is this a healthy meal (and I can feel all virtuous) or will I have nuked all the goodness out of the veg after all the cooking? I'm guessing the curry paste is probably quite salty, and the coconut milk high in fat. So maybe it's not a healthy meal at all. It doesn't 'feel' healthy (like when you have a plate of lightly cooked fresh veg) but it must have some goodness in it doesn't it?
