    Really good, my husband loved it, but just a little too vinegary. Will try again.

    I saw Aarti cooking this recipe on tv and she totally convinced me that I could do this but I have just cooked it and I have NO idea what I have done wrong. I followed the recipe as much as I could (granted- I can only use beef fillet, and there is no power tonight so I had to use my gas BBQ everything went really well but it tastes really powdery and vinegary :( I'm pretty sure (100% sure that it is my doing! Sorry Aarti, I do love you but I made a mess of your vindaloo. Help :(

    Excellent recipe except for the amount of vinegar.

    To fix this I used 1/2 the vinegar then added about a tsp of better than bullion (beef and enough water to make up the volume. Also, I added 2 tsp of brown sugar and the juice from an entire lime.... these additions resulted in (what I believe to be a better curry which had a deeper flavor, due to the citrus bringing out the rest of the earthy tones, without too much added acidity.

    Hope you like my suggestions, happy cooking!

    Yummy! Could use something a little creamy and cooling to go with it, but with the chapatis, it's awesome. I like some heat, and I love that this has heat, and great flavor, without compromising.

    Marvelous recipe! I love Indian food and this is a superb example of the best. I made a large quantity, so when I had eaten it as is for several days I added a can of coconut milk to the rest for variety. The result was absolutely fantastic! I have spent a total of several months in India and Thailand and nothing ever tasted better to me than Aarti's Goan Beef Curry, with or without the coconut milk addition. She is the greatest!

    We loved this recipe!!! We have another sirloin in our freezer and I am going to make this again. I have tried several "Arti" recipes and everyone of them have been delicious. I am so glad she won last year's Next Food Network Star.

    I really liked this dish; I made it for my family and it was a huge hit. Personally, I would go a little heavier on the turmeric and a little lighter on the paprika, but that's definitely a personal preference thing- my father liked it just as-is. My family likes the heat; I would make sure to scoop the seeds out of the pepper if you didn't, though. The flavors were amazing, though. I loved the taste of the vinegar in the sauce, everything was balanced really nicely.

    Fantastic flavors. We made this dish with pork instead of beef and it came out tasty and tender. We halved the amount of cayenne called for but used the Serrano, next time we'll probably pull the Serrano during the braising stage to reduce the heat of the dish and provide cayenne or black pepper table side. Had this with a side of Aloo Gobi and naan, fantastic dinner and a great introduction to Indian spices.

    This was my first Aarti recipe & my first attempt cooking Indian cuisine & it turned out fabulously! I was impressed & I can't wait to make another. It had some nice fire to it & I cooled it down by serving it over whole wheat couscous & topped it with a dollop of plain Greek-style yogurt. I may tone down the heat next time, so it would be more kid-friendly for my babies, but me & the hubby loved it! I used regular stew meat, & it turned out nice & tender by being patient & letting it cook as directed.
