This is a fnatastic recipe!! My family loves it, and my husband really enjoys cooking it. We stick to the recipe, then let it simmer for about 30 minutes, then add more spices to taste. (Always more curry) It makes a lot but saves and reheats really well! It has become a staple in our house.

Very good! I followed the recipe for the most part. Halved the pepper paste so it wouldn't be too spicy. I used two cans of Hunts tomato sauce and one large can of chopped tomatoes (drained). I ate this with Minute Rice. This recipe makes quite a bit.

This recipe ROCKS! I've added different veggies (runner beans, for example), which allows for variety, since I've made it frequently since the first try. I've also used powdered coconut milk, and had a positive outcome. I had it simmer for quite a long time, waiting for the hunny returning later from work than usual, and it made the curry that much richer - which makes this meal a time-tolerant option as well. All around, this is a FANTABULOUS recipe. Thanks for sharing it.
