16 One-Pot Curry Recipes to Bring Some Flavor to Your Meals (2024)

One-Pot Red Curried Lentils

Let’s start things off with a healthy vegan option. This curry features a coconut milk base, which provides plenty of healthy fats — not to mention a rich flavor and texture. Vegan pro tip: To boost the protein content of this meal, serve your curry over quinoa instead of rice. (via Yuri Elkaim)

One-Pot Spinach Dal

Dal is a Hindi term for split pulses (pulses meaning lentils, beans or peas). This dal recipe calls for yellow peas, alongside the flavors of cumin, mustard, onion, jalapeño and fresh ginger. (via Making Thyme for Health)

Paleo Chicken Curry With Cauliflower and Sweet Potatoes

This Paleo-friendly curry makes use of cauliflower rice… a must-have if you’re trying to eat primal. Meanwhile, the sweet potatoes in this recipe give you a heaping of healthy carbs, filling you right up. (via Abbey’s Kitchen)

Vegan Lentil Curry With Tomatoes

Vegan AND gluten-free, this classic curry recipe has something for everyone. It also happens to be ready in under 30 minutes. Serve with lime for an extra flavor kick. (via Avocado Pesto)

Slow Cooker Coconut Quinoa Curry

This curry recipe only requires one pot: your slow cooker. Just throw some sweet potatoes, broccoli, quinoa, chickpeas and coconut milk into your slow cooker along with some spices, and turn it on. It’ll be ready in about three hours. (via Simply Quinoa)

Easy Chicken Curry

This easy-to-make curry recipe is perfect for weeknight meals. You can use any cut of chicken you want in this recipe, but drumsticks are arguably the best choice. Serve over rice if you feel like it, or leave the grains out if you’d rather eat Paleo. (via Life As a Strawberry)

Spicy One-Pot Prawn Curry

Prawns (AKA shrimp) are the star ingredient in this spicy and DELICIOUS curry recipe. What gives it its kick, you ask? Why, that would be fresh chilies along with cumin, coriander, curry paste and turmeric. (via Supergolden Bakes)

Thai Red Chicken Curry

This super yummy curry recipe is a classic. It’s made in less than 30 minutes and, like all of these recipes, in one pot — making it very low-maintenance. Pro tip: Seasonal, local ingredients are what really make a curry stand out. Spring for the freshest ingredients you can find. (via Jo Cooks)

One-Pot Curried Chicken and Rice With Kale

Kale is a major superfood, and this healthy curry recipe puts it to good use. While long-grain brown rice is arguably the healthiest grain to use in this meal, you can also stick with basmati or jasmine rice, which are more authentic choices. (via Living Lou)

Easy Thai Green Curry

Chicken breasts, eggplant, coconut milk, bell peppers, peas and cilantro comprise the core flavors of this amazingly green curry recipe. If you want to keep this recipe plant-based, simply sub tofu in for the chicken breast. (via Club Narwahl)

One-Pot Coconut Curry Shrimp

This recipe is so packed with hearty, flavorful ingredients, you don’t even need rice. In fact, it’s 100 percent Paleo friendly. (via Plating Pixels)

One Pot Chickpea Tikka Masala

One-Pot Coconut Chickpea Curry

This recipe calls for ghee, which is essentially clarified butter. It’s a healthy source of fat, which will help you feel full and satisfied. Throw in some chickpeas, coconut milk and fresh veggies, and you’ve got a super healthy meal to tide you over. (via Recipe Girl)

Coconut Cashew Curry Chicken and Rice With Mango

Mango will transport you to the warmth of summer, and it also happens to be full of nutrients and antioxidants. This bright and summery curry recipe is a fantastic warm-weather alternative to the traditionally warm and spicy recipes you’ll find elsewhere. (via Chef de Home)
