Notes
Cool any leftover curry within 2 hours and store in an airtight container in the fridge for 2 days (please note leftover rice should be used within 1 day). Leftover curry can also be frozen in individual portions for up to 3 months.
When ready to use, defrost curry overnight in the fridge and gently reheat in a saucepan, with a splash of water (or stock) until piping hot.
Serving tip: This dish is best served with rice. Ensure any leftover rice is run under cold running water and cooled as quickly as possible (ideally within 1 hour of cooking) and leftovers used within 1 day. If reheating, always reheat until piping hot, or serve leftover rice cold in a salad.
