Method

Heat 2 tbsp oil in a pan and gently fry the ginger, garlic and chilli for a couple of minutes. Add the curry paste and cook for 1 minute, then add the mixed vegetables, tomatoes and a good splash of water. Cook for 10-12 minutes.
Meanwhile, heat the remaining groundnut or vegetable oil in a pan and fry the shallots until crispy.
Season the curry, add the yogurt and simmer for a further 5 minutes. Sprinkle the curry with the crispy shallots before serving with rice.
