I make similar to this. Sometimes I add potato
[only one error, it should read Chief Curry Powder, not Channa] but reading the recipe makes it obvious.
Occasionally add a pepper to it as my dad loves things hot! - 3/17/13

oops sill me. Thanks. My mum does not like it too hot so I don't add the pepper

This is not a 'low salt' dish, it might be compared to the original but it's not low enough for someone on a low salt diet. Adding salt to a low salt dish is certainly a no-no.
'Reduced salt' would be a better description, only to make it easier for people who are looking for genuine low salt dishe - 8/8/13
