Really liked this and hope you do too. I made with 1 teaspoon of curry powder which was very mild. Sort of wonder if it shouldn't be more-I did double the original amount already. Depends upon how well you like curry, I guess. From the May 2010 issue of Food & Wine. Topped ours with recipe#418884 b/c I had made it earlier and it was perfect on this too. This can be made ahead too. The roasted curried vegetables can be refrigerated separately overnight. The croutons can be kept in an airtight container at room temperature overnight.

Return all of the vegetables to the bowl and let cool.
Meanwhile, in a medium skillet, heat the vegetable oil.

Scrape the curry over the vegetables, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat.
