    Very simple and tasty! I wouldn't change anything about the recipe. I used readymade ghee which worked just fine, and I used 4 chicken breasts instead of six. Served it in a bowl over brown rice. Very wholesome and everyone enjoyed it!

    This was my first attempt at curry and it was fantastic. Everything turned out just right, the sauce was spicy and thick but not gummy. I served it over jasmine rice because that is what I had but I could have eaten it plain and still loved it. I'm not sure what the problem with thickening might be. I made it in a dutch over and the times in the recipe were accurate.

    Satisfying flavors, but nothing close to legitimate Indian curry, though I was impressed by the notion of the homemade garam masala. The broth never thickened up, so it was very watery. (FYI, back-up rice saved the day as a mixer! If you like peas, potatoes, cauliflower, or any number of vegetables not listed, it's totally fine to throw them in. Definitely make sure to add enough salt. Overall, it's a decent dish, especially for those who want to eat ethnic, but have palettes that don't take strong, sharp flavors well.

    I've made this a few times - in the episode he adds a can of chick peas so maybe that's what's missing in this recipe to help with the thickening

    This is an good recipe with excellent flavor. Definitely will make again. My family enjoys spicy food so next time I will add more curry and red peppers. Also going to cut back on the liquid because it never really did thicken. Was still delicious. We ate it in bowls served over rice so the extra "broth" was not bad. Also great as leftovers when the spices have set and blended well overnight.

    Absolutely wonderful! The flavor of the curry was absolutely delicious - along with the garam masala (which I bought ready-made, along with ghee, I added about 2 teaspoons of sweet curry powder. Substituted about 1/2 teaspoon of red pepper flakes instead of dried chilies. The dish had a wonderful depth of flavor with just the right amount of heat. I used light coconut milk and had trouble getting the sauce to thicken, so it took longer than 20 minutes and never truly thickened, but it reduced a bit and was still delicious. Used chicken thighs rather than breasts. Added cubed potatoes and carrots (already partially cooked to the pot in the last 5 minutes or so, to make it more of a complete meal. This will be a family favorite! Great for a winter night.

    This recipe has the perfect depth of flavor and is very forgiving if you want to add extra ingredients. I added 2 Yukon Gold and 2 Small Red Potatoes as well as extra Curry Powder. We really love Cilantro so I added an extra handful. I doubled the recipe for a huge family gathering and had my cousins begging for the recipe. This is a new favorite!

    Skinless chicken thighs as a substitute, in when you add the coconut milk and stock for about 40 minutes. More curry and other spices, or reduce liquids. Maybe some potato, or chickpeas. Half butter and half canola (or olive oil. No tomato?

    It was really delicious! the only reason for 4 *'s was cause it lacked in a few things. I added some fish sauce and some soy sauce for a teeny bit more flavor. I also did as nickcdavis did and added some extra curry powder. The only other thing I added was just a couple pinches of brown sugar to give it a little more depth. It is soooo good! Really great to add potatoes too!

    Excellent. Hit the spot! Not at all strong in coconut (in fact, I would have enjoyed more coconut flavor - used lite coconut milk, I'm pretty whimpy when it comes to heat, so I used two red chiles (and was nervous. I'd use at least three next time. Other than that, I did make some minor changes... I cooked the coconut mixture (sans the tomatoes, chicken, etc. for as long as I could (at least an hour. I then added sliced carrots & potatoes (next time, add potatoes later. I also used chicken thighs, which were extremely tender. Besides that, I made it with brown basmati rice & naan on the side,& it was excellent. Recipe makes quite a lot. I'd definitely make it for company. Very yummy. : Mmmmmmm.
