How To Sweeten Curry
More often than not curries are sweetened by adding sugar a little bit at a time. This is because the curry flavor can come across as quite potent.
Instead, this dairy-free curry sauce uses fresh fruit boiled into the mixture to sweeten it. The peaches compliment the spices and create a contrast between traditional flavors like turmeric and sweetness.
Which Spices Are Best
This recipe uses very basic seasonings like garlic, onion, ginger, and turmeric. All of which have been shown to boost the immune system.
The combination of garlic, ginger, and turmeric provides a lot of anti-inflammation properties. It’s used in cough and cold remedies like fire cider during the cooler months.
Turmeric especially can help reduce pain, boost the immune system, and more (check out this turmeric smoothie to get more of it into your diet!)
While this recipe uses mostly fresh ingredients, using the dried options will work too. Simply half the amount that’s called for.
Does Coconut Milk Curdle In Curry?
Coconut milk is used to help make curry creamy and hearty. It does not curdle in the curry but blends into it and creates a better sauce.
Make sure to use the canned version though as the carton has ingredients to keep it liquid. You really want to use the thick part of the can or the “cream” for maximum flavor.
What Can I Sub For Coconut Milk?
If you don’t have coconut milk on hand you can try using coconut milk powder. This will help keep the texture of the curry.
Which Broth Is Best For Curry?
Any homemade chicken broth will work for this sweet curry recipe. However, note that it will change the flavor slightly.
This specific recipe uses Perfect Supplements Bone Broth Powder though. It can be a challenge to make your own bone broth regularly so the powder form is a lifesaver given that bone broth is one of the three best foods for kids.
Simply mix it with boiling water and you have ready-made bone broth.
Plus, the perfect supplements bone broth powder is made from free-range chickens and contains no additives or spices. This makes it so it takes on the flavor of the curry instead of changing it.
Grab your bone broth powder and use code mamabear10 to save some money.
Topping The Sweet Curry With Protein
This curry recipe is amazing for a Meatless Monday dish (as is this Aloo Palak Recipe!).
However, while this curry is amazing without a protein source, it doesn’t mean you can’t use one!
The bone broth powder provides some protein. However, this dish also tastes delicious with:
- Grilled or shredded chicken
- Flavored tempeh
- Pan-fried tofu
Top the dish with your favorite protein source and enjoy! Or enjoy a veggie-based dish like this Bhuna curry.
FAQ’s & Tips
You can easily substitute the veggies in this dish. Celery, cauliflower, and carrots all work interchangeably.
You can also use green curry paste instead of red.
Enjoy the curry over top of rice or even as a gut-boosting noodle bowl.
If you’re not used to the flavor of turmeric (it can be a bit potent), scale back the amount to half a teaspoon

I love curries, but I don't like peaches. Is there anothe fruit you would recommend?

Plums, mangos or nectarines I think would work perfectly! They'd still be sweet and would work well with the curry flavors 🙂
