Mix the cornflour with the yoghurt and stir into the pan. Simmer over a low heat, stirring frequently, until the sauce thickens. Cook for 2-3 minutes more, then scatter over the chopped coriander.

Prepare the recipe the day before it's needed up to the end of step 1 then when you come to reheat it, add the yoghurt mix before serving. You can also add other vegetables to the curry - try squash or pumpkin instead of sweet potato and cauliflower instead of the aubergine.
