How to make Jalfrezi Curry Sauce

green bell peppers

🥗Healthier: zucchini

💰Cheaper: frozen mixed peppers

Zucchini provides a similar texture and is lower in calories.

vegetable oil

🥗Healthier: coconut oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Coconut oil adds flavor while canola is often cheaper.

fresh cilantro

🥗Healthier: parsley

💰Cheaper: dried cilantro

Parsley offers a fresh taste and is often more accessible.

green chilies

🥗Healthier: jalapeños

💰Cheaper: banana peppers

Jalapeños provide heat while banana peppers are milder and less expensive.

Chop the onions, bird's eye chilies, garlic, ginger, and fresh tomatoes.

Weigh 24 grams of rapeseed oil using gram scales.

Heat the rapeseed oil on low heat.

Prepare the bird's eye chilies: for a hot flavor, slice them in half and add to the oil; for a medium flavor, prick the skin and remove the stalk.

Cook the chilies in the oil for about 4-5 minutes, watching for color change and aroma.

Remove the chilies from the oil to prevent excess heat and retain the oil's flavor.

Add 150 grams of chopped onions to the chili oil.

Season with approximately 1 teaspoon of salt to taste.

Cook the onions until they are fully incorporated and reduced down.
