  Important to boil off a lot of the fluids - helps to bring out the best mix in flavours. Also helps to get the potatos nice and soft.

  the paste seperated, so it didnt look as good, but it still tasted greet, and i also put a bit to much spice in.

  Pretty good! I steam the sweet potatoes in the microwave for 3 mins before throwing them in, just to make sure they're cooked enough. I also used low fat coconut milk which made the curry a bit runny, so I cooked it for longer to thicken the sauce and it still worked well.

  Excellent recipe. I used butternut pumpkin as I cannot get the orange fleshed sweet potatoes here. I added a can of drained and rinsed chickpeas, too. My vegetarian daughter-in-law really enjoyed it. The naan bread is a nice change.

  Tonight was the second time I have tried this recipe, this time I substituted Barts low fat coconut milk, used 3 tabelspoons of Pataks Tikka Masala paste and added a small tin of chick peas just before the spinach. We enjoyed it the first time as per recipe, but this time it was better still. Diane Staffordshire

  A lovely and sweet vegetarian coconut curry. Perfect for using up organic box left-overs - mine had mange-tout and broccoli in it as well!

  I made this for the first time the other evening. I found the instructions to be a bit brief (usually it says whats the best kind of pan to use, I used a high sided frying pan and I think it would have been better in a normal pan as I had to add extra liquid, also I wasnt sure if I could use some sort of oil to stop the onions burning, or if this would effect the taste). Is it me or does it not say what 2-3 madras paste is of? I initially made it with 2-3 teaspoons but you couldnt taste it once the coconut milk was in so I had to add it at a later stage but I dont think this was detrimental in any way. I served it with rice (didnt mean to I forgot I had naan till after I served) and it went really well. My vegetarian guest loved it as did the rest of the family. Will make again but will add 2-3 tablespoons of paste.

  Absolutely lovely! My veggie daughter really liked it. Added some chickpeas and also had some butternut squash left over from another recipe. I roasted the veg a bit first before adding to the sauce mix. Yum!!!

  really tasty! Added a tin of chopped tomatoes and used low fat coconut milk and threw in some prawns at the end - delicious! Took a bit longer to cook than indicated as had to reduce sauce down a bit and think I will take the tip to steam the sweet potatoes a bit first. Still great, and so much of it!!

  I added a whole tin of coconut milk as the recipe suggests but it was more like soup so I let it cook for a lot longer to reduce. I didn't have any spinach so threw in some frozen peas (similar?!) It was delicious. I will definitely make it again
