I've experimented a little bit with making curry, but I was never satisfied with what I would create. So I gave it another go yesterday.....SUCCESS. When I lifted the lid from my Vitamix it smelled like I just walked into an Indian restaurant where I used to eat. So I knew I had something worth keeping. I quickly wrote down all the ingredients I used and voila.......now I'm gonna share it with everyone here.

CURRY SAUCE
3 carrots
5 sticks celery "costco sized celery, so if you have an actual head of celery you may need less"
1 orange bell pepper
2-3 cloves garlic
2 african bird peppers "for those that like it spicy, so spice to your liking, omit if you don't want it too spicy"
1 cayenne pepper "spice to your liking"
1.5" chunk ginger
1/4c coconut oil
1t curry powder
1/4t cinnamon powder
1/4t sea salt
1/4t black pepper
1/4t thyme
2t honey
1/8 of an onion
Put all ingredients into vitamix and whizz up until it's nice and smooth.
Makes around 4 cups of curry sauce
Then scoop the some of the sauce over some mixed veggies which are cut into bit sized pieces and mix it up. You can also mix the sauce with your veggies then let it sit at room temperature for a little bit and the veggies become softer. But I also cut up the veggies the day before and had enough in my fridge to make a couple dishes, so that could of also contributed to the softness of the veggies after letting the dish sit at room temperature for a little while. It has a nice texture when the veggies have softened up a bit. I'm sure it could also be done in the dehydrator too.
The garlic is a guesstimation cus I made this garlic mix earlier in the day with 2 whole bulbs of garlic enough coconut oil to cover a pinch of sea salt and cayenne and african bird peppers, then whizzed it in the vitamix. Then I just took a heaping teaspoonful of this mix and put it in. So I'm guessing it's probably 2-3 or so cloves of garlic.
