  Filling but not the most flavoursome. Halved all the ingredients to make for 2 and used red lentils instead of quinoa... No convincing would make the fiancee try that! Tastes like it is made from a jar (which it is). If you can make you own curry paste I would recommend doing so. When frying the onions I added some garam masala and to the chicken fried this in paprika and cumin. Gave it a bit more taste. I also added some tomato puree and frozen mixed veg to get some vegtables in there. Won't be rushing to make it again unless I make some more changes, but as a once a month dish it is very good to get fibre and vegetables in there for the family!

  I have made this recipe numerous times since it appeared in the magazine. I use chicken thighs sometimes adding mushrooms, also reducing the stock to 750ml gives the quinoa a better consistancy.

  This was lovely, it went down a treat with the boyfriend, who was dubious about the quinoa at first, but cleared his plate and went back for more! Would definitely make again. I didn't have any Balti paste so I used Madras paste instead, I don't know if it would have been any better or worse with Balti paste, but it was really nice anyway.

  This recipe went really well, starting to use quinoa now instead of other wheat-based like giant or normal cous cous which i used a lot until realising i was severely wheat intolerant. Tasted excellent, was really filling and we were both happy to eat another portion each of the left overs the next day. Recommended ;o)

  Excellent, really easy, tasty and very filling eaten with naan bread. I am vegetarian so I used quorn pieces instead of chicken and it was delicious. Good meal to cook when you get in from work because it so simple and the family love it.

  This was very tasty and I would definitely have it again although I agree with the other comments about there being too much liquid left at the end. I would use less stock next time. I followed a few of the other pieces of advice by removing the chicken and then continuing to simmer for a while longer to reduce the liquid and adding some frozen leaf spinach and roasted red pepper. I also chopped the chicken into pieces and the whole dish seemed to go much further. Very filling and great for next day's lunch too!

  we all enjoyed this, I think the sauce with anything would be very nice. Recipe to repeat in our house and very little washing up for the dishwasher.

  Really nice and easy to make! Not the best curry, but still nice! I've made this three times now! Yum yum! Oh and Quinoa is great! I don't think it's a desired taste really? ;-)
