You could feed an army with this. But if you have leftovers, freeze one half and leave the other half in the fridge for the week. Best consumed within 5 days. Then you have your lunches sorted for the next week – just take it out of the freezer the day before and store in the fridge once defrosted.
This curry goes great with brown rice.
