  At what time does coriander come in? I suggest to add more tandoori just a couple of minutes before it's ready. Otherwise it's a bit dry.

  I made this for my family of 4 for a lightish lunch last Sunday. It was really tasty, but we all felt hungry a couple of hours later. I will definately make this again, but I'll use more chicken and maybe about 50% more of the rice.

  Nice easy recipe. Used low fat creme fraiche instead of yoghurt. Needed slightly more stock. Children enjoyed it!

  I'm surprised that someone commented that their family was hungry after making this dish, the portions were fine for my family, we had it for an evening meal and it was delicious, I also served some poppadums - it was very tasty and filling, maybe we are used to 'proper' portions!

  Fantastic recipe. Used only one tbsp tandoori paste ( used M&S brand) and felt it wasn't enough. But my 4 year old enjoyed it. Next time will try using 2 tbsp. Yum!
