Ooo, I really liked this one. A rich creamy coconut delight. Served with pea and mint rice.

This was my first effort from the fantastic Curry Legend Veggie Table kit. The flavour has super depth and combinations. I added the full 1/2 lemon juice before serving (per the recipe) but think this is a bit too much and it swamped the other flavours a bit - I would suggest adding adding the lemon juice this slowly and keep tasting until you think there's enough. Overall it took me 1hr from start too finish (working steadily). We served this for three which was just about right - I think four is a push without sides/extras (which to be fair is what the recipe states). Paired with plain rice (not too ambitious on my first attempt). Very impressed with the kit and recipe book. I will make this one again (with less lemon) for sure.
