I made this for my 20 something kids and they didn't leave any for me. I'll have to double the recipe next time so that I can hide a bit from them. Love the citrus and the fresh parsley!! I've used Madras Curry Powder in the can before and found it to be super salty. I went to the local Indian grocery and they gave me Madras Curry Powder from India - no salt added. If you aren't lucky enough to have a local Indian grocery, then, Penzeys carries a salt free Hot Curry Powder that you can order online. Stay away from that little silver can with all that salt!! Make this recipe!! Your children will thank you.

Check out 'dulcet' madras curry. Even though this is a vegetarian dish - the madras curry is glutten-free and 100% natural and can be used to stir fry veggies, chicken or shrimp. Really makes this dip but agree that the salt needs to be reduced. Hope this helps!
