3 of 3 people found this review helpfulThis will definitely become a regular dinner. My kids ate every last bite! I did add two minced, seeded jalapenos! It was excellent. I have always loved Indian food but this was the best. i did use frozen chicken tenderloin and did not chop them. This made this a super easy, healthy dish! - 1/10/09

O.K.
2 of 5 people found this review helpfulThe instructions were very badly written: what size onion? when do I add the tomatoes? I love curry dishes but I didn't think this recipe was so great. I would try other recipes first. - 2/25/09
Reply from MILIESANJU (3/8/09)
an average sized onion is approximately 50 calories and people have different attitude to it , some like the taste and smell of it and wouldn't mind it if the recipe has a stronger flavour of the onion. i didn't specify it becoz i believe cooking is an art and it shows individual prefferences.

1 of 1 people found this review helpfulThe photo looks really yummy! Your recipe calls for 2 tbsp of Olive oil which is not in the nutrition data. I wonder what the true fat content would be? Could you please specify which brand and what kind of curry powder you use? I'd like to make it - bought all the ingredients-sitting in the fridge. - 7/12/09

1 of 1 people found this review helpfulI've been looking for a hearty traditional curry recipe for some time now. This was so easy to make and my friends all loved it! Thank you!
Also, adding 1/2 of a red hot chilli pepper really spices it up a notch :) - 11/16/08
Reply from MILIESANJU (11/24/08)
what i do is add peppercorns in the begining and let it crackle and sometimes add dried red chilly into it .

I have tried many curry recipes, and this one comes the closest to what I am hoping for taste-wise without very much oil or fat. In my version I used peanut oil, garam masala plus turmeric (instead of chicken curry powder), and I added chopped carrots. Tasted great with generous portion size. - 6/16/11

Love this :) Hubby thought it was WAY better than going out to the local Indian Restaurant! I bought a thing of Naan at the grocery store (It isn't really considered a "loaf" is it?), brushed with some EVOO, and put in the oven for a few minutes. It was just wonderful! - 8/13/10

My family loved this easy dish! Instead of water, I added a can of diced tomatoes, a small can of tomato sauce and fresh halved mushrooms and let the chicken and mushrooms cook in the sauce. I used ground ginger and this dish proved to be a new weekly meal for us! Thanks for delicious simplicity! - 1/13/10
