    I cooked this last night and it was lovely, I followd the recipe. I think that all of the negative comments come from people who couldn't boil an egg. If you need to weigh a liquid in grams then put a small empty container on your kitchen scales and reset to zero then pour your liquid into the container until you get to your desired weight. Hardly rocket science, is it?

    Constructive Comment: Please read some reputed authors' Indian cook books before you post more videos.

    Notice all these people who are quick to say its a load of rubbish yet they arent actually making any constructive comments themselves on how to make it better or probably not making their own videos either...I dont know what Indians youve been eating at but I have just made this dish and was as good if not better than Kormas Ive had out...not a "traditional Khurma" as one person said. Id suggest getting to know your curries before saying its not correct. Khurma and Korma are actually slightly different. Anyway rant over, appologes to those who can make positive comments. Agreed the video and written recipe dont match EXACTLY but to be honest...so what?? use a bit of commonscense and there wont be a problem. Im no chef, but it turned out great! thank you shahena for a great easy to follow, great tasting recipe!
