Uuuuum, tonight is going to be a good night peeps. A very good night. Because it is going to be mushroom curry night /movie night and date night all in one.

What that means is that I am putting the kiddoes to bed early and ignoring all the boring tasks I don’t like doing, along with all the task I actually DO like doing. All in the name of a movie with Freddy and lots and lots and lots of curry.

I don’t even know the name of the film we are watching. All I know is that I will be watching A MOVIE and eating a few helpings of this Tanzanian inspired mushroom curry, heaped high on some rice with a side helping of chutney.

Nuff said.

Why You’ll Love Tanzanian Inspired Mushroom Curry

So I think I’ve done a good job selling you on why I am looking forward to digging into a big bowl of Tanzanian Inspired Mushroom Curry, but you’re probably wondering ‘what’s in it for me?’

Well, I think when you take a look at that big, beautiful pan of mushroom curry, it’s pretty clear what’s in it for you: a whole lot of deliciousness. But here are a few more reasons why you’ll love mushroom curry…

It only takes about 40 mins to make. Need a quick and flavourful dinner? Tanzanian Inspired Mushroom Curry takes about 5 mins to prep and 35 mins to cook — a perfect supper when you’re short on time.
Mushrooms are nutrient-dense. Mushrooms are like little nutrition powerhouses. It’s believed that mushrooms have immune-boosting capabilities, are high in antioxidants, and contain a good amount of several key nutrients like B2, B3, B5, and copper.
Each serving contains fewer than 200 calories. Even with the addition of some rice, the calorie count still keeps it firmly in the ‘healthy eating recipe’ category.
It’s a vegan recipe. There are no animal products in this mushroom curry recipe. (If you don’t need a vegan curry recipe, try my 15 Min Thai Prawn Curry.)
It’s curry. Hellooooo, good food. If you love curry like I do, maybe you should try my egg curry recipe too.

There is a lot to love about this mushroom curry.
