  Sounds yummy. Will give it a go. One query though...can see red chillies on the pic, but not on ingredient list...is this just a trick for the food photography?

  I made this dish last night, was easy to prepare, the smell of it cooking was fantastic, but i found it a little dry. I like my Indian with a sauce that i can mop up with my naan. Maybe i should've added more water, but recipe does say a splash...how much is a splash? Obviously my splash was too small.The picture looks like it has a good sauce, mine did not look like that... I didn't have any ground coriander on hand so i just added extra fresh coriander..

  Made this last night and was really disappointed. The masala mix smelt lovely after making it but the dish as a whole lacked something despite all the ingredients, but I couldn't figure out what. I agree with the comment above, it was quite a dry curry and looked nothing like the picture despite following the recipe exactly. Not the worst meal I've tasted but wouldn't make again.

  Didn't 'whizz' anything - clearly water required (would have used yogurt if had) - bit of mango chutney.Actually it was v pleasant.

  Made this last night, did used quite big splashes of water to avoid it being too dry - you could try adding some yogurt of coconut milk for extra liquid. Lovely fresh taste.

  Substitute the splash of water with a very generous splash of dry white wine and a tablespoon of Thai Fish Sauce. I added coconut cream just before serving to make it a bit more sauce. Fabulous!

  Thanks to the comments above, added 300ml of coconut milk which produced a fantastic fresh, saucy curry. Would have been five stars otherwise, as the flavours in the herb masala are great. Also added some peas to up the veg content.
