Green Day Mrs Shah's Curry Mix ideas please

I bought some of the Mrs Shah's curry mix pots (one mild and one medium) after my class leader mentioned them a few weeks ago. I don't eat meat so I'll be making a veggie curry but I'm not entirely sure which veggies will work best. Any suggestions please?

I love cauliflower in curry - aloo gobi is my favourite Fine green beans and aubergines work well too, plus spinach and sweet potato. I'd usually throw most of them in, plus maybe some mushroom and chickpeas?

I bought some of this it arrived yesterday do you add the spice mix to tomatoes/passatta?

Yes you mix with a tin of tomatoes and I think you also need to add salt plus whatever you are cooking (chicken, veggies etc.) There is a usually a cooking suggestion on the back and the Mrs Shah website has some recipes as well. I tried the mixed bean curry recipe and it was lovely. Going to try a veggie one next.
