    This recipe is amazing and I'm a devoted follower of Rogan Josh...best recipe I've tried yet. I halved the chilli ingredients for a less spicy meal so the kids could enjoy it too. - 5/31/10

    Delicious! With the after-holiday sales, lamb was on sale this week and this dish was wonderful! Full of flavor, easy to make, and a delight to the taste buds with a pleasant tingle that remains in the mouth. What a joy to finally enjoy the gamier flavor that lamb tends to have. - 1/12/11

    We loved this curry, served it with Cauliflower Rice. Next time I will halve the chilli powder as we found this a little too hot for our taste. It tasted so good I still can't believe I made it myself. Thanks for sharing PSDAHRI, I am now looking at your other shared recipes for next weeks dinners. - 7/20/12

    this was delicious, only used half the meat in recipe and it was great. Served it with brown rice, a super filling quick favorite. - 1/24/12

    This has been a family favorite "out to dinner" dish; I hadn't really thought I could make it at home. Now, I can & thank you; it's delish. - 1/21/12

    BTW - No need to purchase garam masala. You can make your own Garam Masala: 1Tbs each: black pepper, coriander, 1 cinnamon stick, cardamom and cloves. These are spices that heat your body. I've also had it with cumin and nutmeg - but I like it simply with the five. Enjoy! - 1/29/11

    I did it with ground lamb and used currey powder instead of garam masala - but I'm going to do it again properly. Had it on top of steamed cauliflower instead of rice and it was great. Cauliflower is the new rice/pasta in our house! - 1/20/11

    Regarding "curry" and Indian Cooking: "curry" refers to a formulation of spices used in the recipe. There are many types of curries and therefore anyone looking for the ingedient "curry powder" will not find it here. Garam Masala is a seasoning mixture that can be purchased in Indian grocery. - 7/20/10

    I made this in the crock pot. Came out great. I think that it wasn't great because I didn't have the chili pepper so it was bland. Also, I didn't cut the lamb into small bites, so the seasoning was not even through out. - 6/11/10

    Yum! Yum! Yum! I think that sums it up well - and very low in sodium which is perfect for me. Delicious. - 6/7/10

    SANDRAPW67: Curry powder is a combination of spices the author of the recipes uses in place of commercial curry powder (which is a good thing:-)). - 10/11/09
