Curry for Beginners (Massaman)

Many curries are naturally plant-based, vegan, gluten-free, and generally delicious and nutritious. However, for young children who didn’t grow up eating a lot of spices, there might be a bit of a learning curve. My husband and I love curry, and this spin on Massaman, a Thai curry, is the gateway recipe we’re using with our kids. It is mild, sweet and rich, from the the pineapple, coconut milk and peanut butter!
