Notes

  2. Coriander chutney is not included in the nutritional information.
  3. Here is a coriander chutney recipe if you would like to make your own 
  4. If you want to make your own flatbreads here is my recipe.
  5. Curry leaves are available in most large supermarkets and Asian stores. If you buy a bag you can freeze the rest for use at a later date. If you can’t find them you can leave them out but they really do add a wonderful flavour to this dish.
  6. The potato filling is suitable for freezing.
