\nIf you can\u2019t find the garlic or ginger puree (I found it in Morrison\u2019s) then just crush it until it\u2019s a puree with the back of a large, heavy knife.
\nHeat up a frying pan, add the Panch Puren seeds & cook until they start to \u201cpop\u201d add the onions, cook the sliced onions until soft, (add the star anise for a aniseed taste) removing when the onions are cooked, make a paste with the garlic, ginger, chilli, turmeric, madras curry powder & a small amount of water add to the pan, mix well, add the veg stockpot.
\nMix the chopped tomatoes, tomato puree & onion puree together, add to the pan & cook for 10 mins.

\nGarnish with the coriander if you wish.<\/p>\n
