  • Sauce was fragrant &

    Sauce was fragrant & flavoursome but too watery for my liking; unfortunately I forgot to check previous comments before making. I will try again but sub coconut cream instead and not add water. Also, the lime was a bit too much so I'll try juice of one lime only next time.

  • Mine turned out quite watery,

    Submitted by Laraco on 29. November 2014 - 18:06.

    Mine turned out quite watery, next time I think I will omit the water and maybe add some greens. Flavours were nice although I would have liked a bit stronger. Very easy to make though so quick.

    A lovely mild curry. If mild is your style, then perfect.  I too added some vegetables.

    This was a really delicious curry. I might reduce the coconut milk by 50g or so as I prefer less curry sauce. Will make again. Thank you!

    Absolutely delicious. The flavours were great. I cooked the chicken separately in the varoma  when I cooked the rice. The dish turned out beautifully. Thank you : )

    This was the first curry Ive made in my Thermomix and it was delicious!!! Flavour was great, not too hot and not too mild, although I left out the green cardamom pods.

    We cooked this last night and it was really delicious. Really good for lunch today as well. The lime juice made it quite sour which was really yummy. I used an extra chilli pus did not de-seed. could have done with even more. Also more corriander would have worked. Thanks. Really good.
