Curry Gravy

Dishes & Recipes

Curry gravy is a spiced sauce made by simmering toasted spices and aromatics in a liquid base, such as broth or coconut milk, and is used as the foundation or accompaniment for curry dishes across South and Southeast Asia. Unlike a plain gravy, which is thickened pan juices from a roast, curry gravy is built from scratch with spice blends like turmeric, cumin, coriander, and chili, and can range from thin and broth-like to thick and coconut-rich depending on the cuisine. It is served with rice, noodles, meat, vegetables, and flatbreads such as naan and roti.
