    With a little modification, this recipe is fantastic! I used chicken bullion instead of water. I added the chilis because we like it hot. I used sorrano peppers. I couldn't find coriander and the tumeric was sooooo expensive that I used a table spoon of curry powder and then used all the other spices listed. It was fantastic!

    This was and is simply the worst curry I have ever tasted.It is bland and tasteless.

    Not sure if I did something wrong but I made this curry and it was very bland. I even added chilli powder because I like hot curry's but I couldn't even taste the garlic. How long are you supposed to cook in the spices for? I wonder if I was too quick with it.
