    It was delicious! Very easy and simple to make. I did not have ginger and omitted it from the recipe. It still was delicious! My husband also liked it a lot and he can be a picky eater.

    Absolutely delicious! The only mistake I made was not having enough chicken I used a whole chicken cut up(all I had on hand and it wasn't enough! Will definitely do again. I used 1 1/4tsp of chili flakes as I didn't have the right amount of protein but I kept everything else as is.

    Very easy to put together and delicious. I added a branch of curry leaves to the recipe.

    This was an absolutely delicious recipe. My husband and I saw this show last weekend, and we both immediately wanted to make this. So I tried this tonight. It was supersimple, and my husband and I loved it.

    This recipe is great! It is so easy and with it's unique blend of spices, it tastes wonderful. I like to add an extra cinnamon stick. I made this for guests and everyone loved it!

    This recipe is a keeper. I have made it twice already and looking forward to cooking it again. I did cut the chili flakes to 1 scant tsp as I do not like a lot of heat. I added a can of cut green beans and had it over egg noodles. My husband and I were fighting over the last piece. Thank you Alex, it was great

    Excellent. However, I cut the chili flakes from 2 teaspoons to 1/2, which brought the different tastes into balance. The cinnamon added a delightful richness, which would otherwise have been a spicy chicken stew. Further, beneath the somewhat exaggerated cooking directions (which are not terribly essential to the dish is a very fast and easy-to-make dish. Served it over Basmati rice with a cucumber salad. Very well received.

    I made this just with chicken thighs -- it was incredible. The chicken was tender and loaded with flavor. I love using whole cumin seeds and the chile flakes gave just the right amount of heat. I also made the cabbage and a brown rice with home made chicken stock, a little vegetable paste for taste and a mild curry. So, all three were a nice combo. I'll bet the leftovers will be wonderful tomorrow. Thank you Alex. Your culinary skills are spot on!

    I am an Italian-American gal like Alex, so I have lots of tomato sauce cans on shelf. Had to try this one (along with the Naan bread, see that review, awesome too. Today was the perfect day for this kind of comfort food--damp, cold & rainy outside but this warmed us up good and proper. We like spicy food so I kept the chili flakes as given. If you don't like spicy, don't toss this recipe--just cut back on the heat. I think this would work well for other meats including cod or halibut fillets. I used thick chicken breasts and they remained moist. I like that the spices (cumin mostly was not too assertive. I am not a fan of strong curry flavors, so this worked wonderfully. This was definitely an exotic taste but not overwhelming. My first recipe from Alex and a winner! I look forward to trying the cauliflower fritters and cabbage dishes she showed too.

    This was delicious served over rice! I didn't have cumin seeds so I substituted ground cumin, and I used all legs. The leftovers are great too! I will make this dish again. I smash up the tomatoes a little with the back of a spoon as it was cooking. As a side dish I served it with fresh mango and it was wonderful together.
