Any veg can go in a curry as not all "curries" are wet, spinach ,cabbage are ones I have in my recipe book as well as green beans and gourds (marrow/courgette ,pumpkin and all). Dahl is lentil/beans Chrissy, its only as hot as you make it. Restaurant curries are nothing like a curry you would have in India, good job I have recipes that are more home made style. Some areas of India differ a lot, fish and coconut on the coast, lamb goat and chicken in the North and beef is sacred to a lot .Also a vast amount are vegetarian.
