Only rating this high as mine tasted great. But only cos I added lots of extra things to give it flavour. Added creme frais and corgettes and a squirt of honey and also some chilli flakes. Also some tomato puree and alot more tinned tomatoes. Cooked it for an hour on simmer and used cut up chicken thighs.
Aaron. if you, thought Mark`s blurb is something, on wednesday I bought a great GMC after making $6565 this-past/five weeks and-in excess of, $10k lass month. with-out any question its the most-financially rewarding I've had. I actually started four months/ago and pretty much immediately started bringin home over $74, per hour. I work through this website, www.bic5.âom

If you think Herbert`s story is incredible,, last munth my moms girlfriend also brought home $5356 working 20 hour's a week at home and they're buddy's step-sister`s neighbour has done this for seven months and easily made more than $5356 part-time on there pc. use the steps on this web-site... =======bit90.com=======
If you think Norma`s story is really cool..., last pay-check my daughter basically recieved a check for $9539 just sitting there a seventeen hour week in their apartment and they're co-worker's mom`s neighbour did this for 8-months and easily made over $9539 in there spare time On there laptop. apply the advice on this link, =====>>bit90.com<<=====
today is my second time of making this curry. i like it because its low in fat. i add peas to add a bit of colour & veg. i have to say that the cooking times are laughable because if you only did it for the time they say you would be eating raw potatoes. with this in mind add a full 400g tin of tomatoes & extra water and just simmered it away. i didnt serve it wityh rice as the potatoes are enough carbs for me thanks :) the boyf enjoyed it with naan bread (as hes a skinny minny!). Its not a fave but its ok.
Very nice meal and easy to make - my wife and I both enjoyed the mild flavours. As neither of us like our curries too hot I used mild chilli powder and put in extra tomatoes, and cooked it longer to make sure that the chicken and potatoes were tender enough. Perhaps the addition of red peppers would liven it up as suggested in some of the other comments. Anyway, I'll certainly make it again.
I par boiled the potato first & grated the garlic, ginger & onion. I also added extra garam masala & swartze? mild chilli powder as the dish was bland to my taste.
I also added double the amount of tomatoes & a long red pepper & threw in some cherry tomatoes near to the end of cooking.
Good dish with a few changes.
