ThatāsĀ if you donāt eat it all firstā¦
Letās be real - some nights you scrape the pot clean. But when you do have leftovers, here are 4 easy, flavour-packed ways to turn last nightās curry into something totally new - no food waste, no boring repeats.
š 1. Curry Toasties
The vibe: Crunchy outside, cheesy, saucy inside.
Shred any leftover meat or mash curried veggies. Layer with cheese between two slices of sourdough, toast until golden, and dip in chutney or yogurt.
Perfect for lunch boxes or lazy Sunday dinners.
š« 2. Stuffed Roti Wraps
The vibe: Street food meets fridge forage.
Reheat your curry and spoon into roti, flatbread or even tortillas. Add pickled onions, coriander, shredded lettuce, or a dollop of yogurt.
Wrap, roll, and devour on the couch. Zero judgement.
š„ 3. Loaded Baked Potatoes
The vibe: Cosy comfort, no extra cooking.
Crack open a baked (or microwaved) sweet potato, fill with warm curry, then top with raita, sour cream, or herbs.
Dinner in under 10 mins. Youāre welcome.
š³ 4. Next-Day Fried Rice
The vibe: Fridge clean-out masterpiece.
Chop up leftover curry (especially if itās veg-based), and toss it into a hot pan with rice, frozen peas, and a splash of tamari or lime juice. Add an egg if youāre feeling fancy.
Tastes like you meant to cook it this way all along.
š¦ Storage Tip
Fridge leftovers should be kept in an airtight container and eaten within 3 days. (If not, pop them in the freezer for a future remix.)
