Personally I wouldn't

 

[jefmcg]

yup.

Edit: depends how you treated the curry. Did it spend a while tepid before you refrigerated it?

 

[swee'pea99]

Yeah, I would

 

[arch684]

As long as they have been cooked they will be ok

If the the curry leftovers were refrigerated promptly...no problem IMO.
If you had rice with it...i wouldn't reheat the rice. If allowed to spoil in any way there is a bacteria that can potentially develop that reheating, however hot, will not kill.

Proper cooking will kill most pathogens, so it's basically the same as cooking it the first time. Ie pretty safe. Put the leftovers promptly in the fridge or freezer once you take them off the heat.

Just make sure when you reheat , you do so to at least 75 degrees C

 

[pawl]

Yes do this regularly
I am currently writing this on the loo.Just joking about the loo

Simple solution.
Keep eating until you have no leftovers.

That's only partly true. Whilst cooking will kill bacteria it doesn't kill the toxins that might have been released while the food was tepid for a period of time. This is how the old rice sickness occurs.
The truck is to heat food to piping hot quickly and then cool quickly afterwards. Don't let it hang around, get it in the fridge pronto. You can then heat and cool many times without issue.

How much rice do you eat!

To answer the question first asked, no problem with eating it.

 

[Markymark]

I would but not if you cooked it.
