This was yummy. I used organic spinach, organic brown mushrooms, organic ginger root, organic local garlic, a little cayenne pepper powder instead of the full amount and Serrano chilli, fine grey sea salt, no garam marsala since I didn't have any and it tasted delicious already, no heavy cream (avoid dairy), and organic ghee.
