Milder as my kids don't like it spicy. So here's my recipe:
2 TS of butter or ghee
2 white onions, chopped
2 cloves of garlic, chopped
1 tsp of fresh ginger, grated
1/2 bird eye chilli, finely chopped
2 TS Garam Masala
1 TS of cumin
1 tsp of turmeric
Pinch of cinnamon, muscat and curry powder
1 can of tomatoes, diced
1 can of chickpeas
Veggie broth (approx. 200-300 ml)
120 ml of fresh cream
Salt and pepper
2 TS of Greek Yoghurt
Fresh coriander and lemon
Strain the chickpeas (I always use the chickpea water as a substitute for egg in other recipes, works well).
Fry the onions in butter, add garlic, ginger and chilli.
Then add all the spices and roast for a minute.
Add the tomatoes, a bit of broth and the strained chickpeas.
Let everything boil on small heat for about half an hour.
Add the cream, salt and pepper.
Garnish with fresh coriander and a spritz of lemon juice.
It's probably either plain yogurt or sour cream. Both are very good at taking the spicy down a notch without changing the flavour of the dish too much. I rely on them heavily when we do anything curry.

Would love a recipe for this! Did you go spicier or milder?

Curry leftovers are the best. I always feel like curries have even more flavour the next day.

Yeah, it's yoghurt. I only ever add it at the end, otherwise it messes up the texture.
