It's definitely yellow and its definitely sweet, and also FULL of aromatics and Indian spices... this is my favourite pumpkin curry dish of all time. It is also flavoured with cashew nuts, roasted gram flour (chick pea flour), and curry leaf which is a very unique flavour to India. I have served it with brown rice that has been cooked with turmeric and some onion and garlic. This very yellow dish is very comforting to the stomach, and embodies all the aspects of the Earth element. If you have never tried a pumpkin curry before, be prepared to be delighted because this really is one of my favourites!
