LOVE it! Easy to make and so delicious! I didn't use any water and added twice the amount of coconut milk and 3x the amount of chutney called for. i used mango chutney and used less ceyanne than it called for. So good!

These were yummy, didn't take too long to make and I was quite full afterward. The flavor is very strong, not bad, just strong. My wife tells me she liked it too.

These are wonderful, with just the right amount of spice. I did one thing differently, however. I let the sauce boil down so it was more like a gravy. The directions do not say to do this and, if you keep the dish covered, it won't happen because the cover will keep the moisture in the pan. So I removed the cover to let the sauce boil down to the thickness I wanted. We loved this recipe and definitely will make it again. Thanks for sharing!

Fantastic, we loved this recipe, i didnt add any water and used mango chutney, also doubled up on the cayenne. This was so good, im sure it would be great with chicken or fish also.
