Avocado curry is probably the ultimate millennial fusion dish. It combines the amazing tastes of curry with the ever increasingly popular avocado. It is a fantastic dish for food and vegetarians and even vegans when prepared right. The avocado gives the curry some texture and chewiness that acts as an excellent substitute for meat. This curry is a bit sweeter than some other curries you might have tried in the past. Make sure to offset the sweetness with lime and spiciness if it’s too sweet.
