Quick Curry Sauce

I read a question asking for curry sauce somewhere and I given a reply for whipping up a quick curry sauce without actually trying out. Few days ago, I gave it a try and it turns out well. So, if you need some curry sauce for the instant roti prata or plain rice within 5 minutes, here is might be the recipe. I added instant mashed potatoes to it to thicken the sauce and for some flavour.

Preparation: 5 mins Cooking time: 5 mins

Ingredients (serves 2)
° 1 tablespoon curry powder
° ½ teaspoon chilli powder (optional), or to taste
° 125ml water
° 125ml coconut milk or unsweetened soy milk
° 1-1½ teaspoon instant mashed potatoes
° ¾ tablespoon olive oil
° salt to taste

Method
1. Mix the curry powder and chilli powder with a tad of water to form curry paste and set aside.
2. Heat oil in a non-stick wok. Add in the curry paste and fry over medium heat until fragrant.
3. Pour in the water and coconut milk and bring to a boil.
4. Add in the instant mashed potatoes and give it a stir. Season to taste with salt and serve.
