    Incredible!
    I love this recipe! I cut the salt in half and substituted paprika for half of the black pepper. I also used a combination of minced garlic and garlic powder because that's what I had on hand. I used low sodium vegetable broth as well. the dish was flavorful. Classic curry taste :) - 1/6/11
