Peel and core the apples, then cut them into bite-sized chunks. Set aside.
Finely chop the onion, garlic, and ginger.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or pot over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion to the skillet and sauté for 5 minutes, or until softened and lightly golden.
Stir in the chopped garlic and ginger, cooking for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the ground cumin, ground coriander, turmeric powder, garam masala, and chili powder (if using). Stir well to evenly coat the onion mixture in spices.
Add the apple chunks to the skillet, stirring to coat them with the spice mixture.
Pour in the coconut milk and vegetable broth. Stir to combine, and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Cover the skillet and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples are tender but not mushy.
Add the salt and taste to adjust seasoning as needed.
Stir in the lime juice and sprinkle with fresh cilantro.
Serve the apple curry hot over cooked rice or with warm naan on the side.
