Not as good as the smoother curry’s. Dedicated coconut no. Tried the spinach with it. Do not think coconut or red lentils do anything for the flavour.

We're really sorry to hear that you didn't particularly enjoy this curry and its recommended side dishes. Coconut and lentils are integral parts of South Indian cuisine, but the texture they add to the dish might not be everyone's cup of tea, and some people just prefer curries with a smoother sauce. We hope the next Club Recipe is a hit!

Great curry! On the second night I added spinach and some natural yogurt which gave it a different taste too.

One of the most 'takeaway-esque' curries in the collection; great bit of heat, lovely nutty undertones, thick rich sauce, what's there not to like? One child chose seconds of this over a pudding of ice cream, which says it all!
