Heat oil in medium sized saucepan, add dried red chilli, fenugreek seeds and allow to cook for 15-20 seconds to release their flavours. Tip in the rest of the ingredients. Add about ¼ cup water to the pot, give it a quick stir, clamp on a lid and allow to cook until tender on a gentle, low heat. If a little more water is needed, another ¼ cup. It must not catch on the bottom. Finish off with freshly torn coriander leaves Serve with roti or naan as a side to a meat curry. Lush :)
