  The peawn pilau was very nice I am on a low fat diet and always looking for something my whole family will enjoy, and they all did. I will try it with the chicken next time

  This is a fabulous recipe and one of my favourite storecupboard meals! I like to added some toasted cashew nuts or almonds and serve with cooling natural yoghurt. Try omitting the prawns and using smoked haddock and boiled eggs to make kedgeree.

  This is a great mid-week meal for the whole family - just take some out before you add the chilli for younger kids.

  Fantastic recipe! Smelt & tasted great. I used Patak's Tikka Marsala paste. Will definately be making this again soon, not sure if I'd add the chilli next time.

  This is really tasty & even better heated through the next day. Somehow when shopping for ingredients I forgot the prawns & the chilli (!?) so I used 1 can smoked mackerel, one can of tuna & dried chilli flakes instead.

  Very easy recipe, that has been successful every time I've cooked it-which is saying something as I'm an exceptionally rookie cook! Tastes just as good with one tbsp of Curry Paste, which is useful if you are going out in the evening!

  Extremely easy to make, practically idiot proof! Added chicken to the leftovers the following which worked great too. Personally didn't find two spoons of the korma sauce so will put in at least 3-4 next time.

  I used curry powder as had no paste in but still very nice. As my husband doesn't like curry I made it for one but it was very simple to reduce the quantities and very easy to make. Next time I would do chicken instead of the prawns but will definitely make again.

  This is my ultimate stand by. I have made this with sweetcorn, chickpeas, extra hot madras paste, large prawns, small economy prawns to name but a few of the changes. It always turns out light and fluffy and there are never any leftovers!

  Wonderful supper dish - the idea was to leave some for tomorrow's lunch but that's not happening! I'm looking forward to trying the chicken and kedgeree versions soon too.

  I made this with Pataks balti curry paste, added 140g of pancetta with the onions and fried them together. We love prawns so I added 450g of small prawns instead of 150g. The family loved it and can't wait to have it again. It is so easy to prepare that it makes midweek meals a doddle.

  Delicious and very easy to make - even after a long day at work. Would more than recommend it (we used patak's balti curry paste)
