  This is a wonderful recipe for a great Thali, we substituted the aubergine for courgette and the onion riata was quite strong so put cucumber in, it's a lovely curry.

  Loved this recipe, we are not veggie but we did not miss the meat, will most definitely do it again. I served with home made naan. On the down side it was a bit fiddly and created a fair bit of washing up but not at all complicated .

  I really like the dhal, very simple, I regularly use it as a side dish. Great selection of side dishes if not having as main meal.

  Cooked this for veggie and non veggie family members...they all loved it. The curry is delicious and the mildly flavoured rice i will do all the time now. Personally found the paneer itself a bit tasteless so may try a marinade next time. Lovel variety of dishes tho..something for everyone

  I really liked this. The saag paneer I had to double the spices otherwise I found it bland. I added potato and chilli tot he aubergine and it went well. I also used normal tomatoes cut into 4 and it tasted amazing. I didn't do this daal recipe as I thought it didn't seem like a lot was in it but the daal goes really well witht he other dishes.

  Cooked this on Saturday night. Really enjoyed it! Didn't miss the meat at all, it tasted fresh and delicious. One thing I will say is that it's a lot to cook all in one go, I thought I would run out of hob space so decided to cook the sag paneer and the aubergine curry first and keep them warm in the oven while I concentrated on the dahl, rice and raita. It all came together well and I felt less stressed! The washing up pile was enormous but worth it!

  One thing I forgot to say was that I added a pinch of salt to each curry to life the flavour.

  Yummy! This is a lot to cook (and eat!) but all of the dishes are straight forward and easy to make. The flavours and textures compliment each other really well. I made the raita first and it kept well in the fridge until the other dishes were ready. I added a squeeze of lemon juice before serving which made it lovely and fresh. As other ratings have noted, I doubled the spices for each dish and added chilli, as suggested, to the aubergine curry. This made the dishes nicely spicy. I suspect the recipe quantities would be too bland for most tastes. This has already been requested again by my boyfriend and his friend.

  I really enjoy this. There are a lot of components but it actually comes together pretty fast. I had trouble finding paneer here so I made my own but I also discovered it is really good with halloumi.

  All of this recipe was delicious and great for veggie and non veggie guests. As a lover of daal, i have tried a number of recipes to attempt to get that authentic restaurant flavour. This one was great and super easy.
