    We made this for three people, and only one of us could eat it! The lime was overpowering, and that's all you could taste. It was far too tangy, and we couldn't taste the spice at all. This is the worst recipe we have ever cooked from Good Food.

    This was eagerly devoured by hungry teenage sons in a scene reminiscent of a shark feeding frenzy. The husband and I enjoyed ours rather more quietly. The guys kindly let it be known it will be acceptable if I cook this again soon. I put in some carrots (sliced thinly lengthways) as well as the the red pepper, worked well.

    Suprisingly good, for a 1 pot dish. I used Peppers, Baby Corn & Mushrooms, very simple and great for a night when you want something simple and filling.

    Quick and easy to make. A tasty mid-week one pot meal. The peppers added a lovely sweet flavour when baked in the oven.

    I've made this for friends, parents and grandparents and it has been a winner every time - I also chop up the peppers rather more finely, add peas and use chicken stock instead of water. What's lovely about this recipe is you can taste each and every ingredient without any one of them being overpowering!

    Really easy and very tasty one-pot dish. Use an authentic Thai paste if you can as it makes all the difference.

    Very nice - made a great change from the usual, tomato-based rice meals I usually make. I made this with tofu, mangetout & a yellow pepper instead of the chicken & red pepper and also just with plain basmati rice and it was very tasty. Also, I didn't put it in the oven, because I didn't have the right shape oven-proof dish. So I just left it to simmer on top - had to give it a few minutes extra, but otherwise no problem.

    I am only giving this one star because it smelt lovely when cooking -its only virtue I'm afraid - as it came out a horrible sludgy, inedible mess. Won't make again.
