this recipe was really ‘ginger-ey’ and not the best curry I’ve ever had — in fact, it was just OK.
We loved this recipe but be warned that we adore strongly spiced dishes. This was spicy and healthy and cost next to nothing to make. We will make it again often.
This was absolutely delicious. It’s SUPER spicy though — if you’re new to Indian food you might want to start with something a little less hardcore. However, if you enjoy strongly spiced dishes, this is for you! I used ground cinnamon, btw, and had no problems (in case you don’t want to buy stick cinnamon special). I pretty much just threw everything in the food processor for like ten seconds and cooked it up and let it simmer until my husband got home. If it does end up too spicy for your taste, try adding a cup or two of water and letting it cook off. :) Anyways, my husband isn’t even into spicy dishes and he loved this too! We will definitely be having this again. FYI — depending on your portion preference, this is probably not enough for 4 people — we both had relatively small portions tonight (it’s late) and there’s only enough left over for 1 more portion. Which we totally just flipped a coin for. :p Recommend highly!
