Aubergine Tikka Masala

Want a Vegan Fake-away that is fuss-free? Look no further! This is a very quick and easy recipe to throw together, it is fairly cheap to make and it ticks a lot of boxes if you are catering for different dietary requirements too (it's dairy and GF and suitable for vegans). It may take a little while to cook, but hands-on time is minimal.
