  • Don't be afraid to adjust the heat level: This recipe calls for a medium curry powder, but you can adjust the heat level to your liking. If you like things spicy, add more curry powder or a pinch of cayenne pepper. If you prefer a milder curry, use a mild curry powder or reduce the amount of curry powder you add.
