Notes
- The tomatoes should be well ripened to give enough juice such that there's no water or broth is needed.
- This recipe is high in antioxidants that heat can destroy, especially during prolonged cooking. Therefore, keep the cooking short.
- The dish is super spicy. Adjust the curry and ginger according to your liking.
