  It tastes amazing with chickpeas instead of chicken also. This is one of my favourite dishes, and I love cooking it for friends, who are always impressed. Delicious and so simple!

  This recipe is absolutely fantastic..it's easy to follow and quick and is now our Saturday night regular instead of a takeaway curry, much less fat, cheaper and tastier. We reduced the amount of chillies slightly as don't like them too hot...delicious.

  A fantastic tasting meal, quick, tasty and low calorie. Would agree with other comments that water is not needed.

  Didn't add the water and still found it a bit watery. Also had to add a lot more garam masala than suggested to give it any flavour. On top of that it needed a fair bit of salt, and in the end I still found it a bit too tomatoey tasting to be a convincing curry! Quite disappointing really, but still edible - I just won't be making it again!

  I used what I had in the fridge / cupboard, so used Patak Korma paste, a fresh red chilli, fresh thumbnail size of chopped ginger and a 400g tin of chopped tomatoes. I added a tin of chickpeas and some frozen French beans. I let the mixture bubble away then reduced the heat and left it simmering till the tomatoes reduced. Served with rice and a garlic bread. Quick and simple to make, very tasty to eat.
