A deliciously moreish, easy-to-cook Yellow Coconut Curry inspired by the botanicals found in the the award-winning gins at Distillery Botanica? Yes please.
Our head chef Brooke Ng and owner Heaven Leigh took a roadtrip north to the NSW Central Coast to visit the award-winning Distillery Botanica for a gin tasting with herbalist and master distiller Philip Moore.
Inspired by the botanicals Philip and his team use in their gins, Heaven and Brooke decided to create a special Vegan Yellow Coconut Curry among the fragrant gardens of the distillery.
Take a look at the tutorial above on how to cook this deliciously warming curry step-by-step, with the full recipe below.
