Curry is really healthy, delicious and one of my favorite dishes. Root plants like ginger and turmeric which are the main ingredients of curry, keeps our body warm and boosts our immune system. Use low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth whenever possible, because it enhances the flavor! Serve with whole wheat naan bread or whole grain rice to make your meal more healthy.
