Great recipe! When I first prepared it, it was a little too soupy for me (and that was even after I had boiled it considerably longer than the recommended 5 minutes). However, I portioned out the leftovers with rice and found that I enjoyed the leftovers much more. The rice had soaked up the extra sauce...it was really tasty. I'm certain that I'll be making this again...thanks for sharing!

    I used fresh mushrooms and also did not need any stock/water. I didn't use chilies but did add some chili powder-minimal since I have toddlers. I used closer to 1/3 c of fresh tomato puree, and added more dry coriander since I didn't have fresh. I used plain yogurt. I ended up wanting more flavor so doubled the cumin, garlic, ginger, cor., and gar. mar. and it turned out great. My 21 month old gobbled it up, as long as the mushrooms were tiny enough.My 3 y old liked the peas part. I served it over brown rice. It's a good dish and maybe I'll make it again.

    Great dish. I omitted the chicken stock since my mushrooms cooked just fine without any liquid (I didn't even need to add any water). It was really tasty over carrot rice and with cucumber raita on the side.
