Craving curry? Try these vegetarian versions for size. They sing with fragrant spices and deliver big flavour, without the meat. Must-try recipes include Peter Kuruvita’s Sri Lankan beetroot curry, or some soothing dhal with your choice of roti or jeera rice. Tony Tan’s Vietnamese-style yellow curry, meanwhile, is a winner thanks to his genius inclusion of tamarind-marinated mushrooms.
