This is so easy and delicious. It also freezes very well.
Thoroughly enjoyed this meal – Thanks for sharing
I halved the recipe as it was only feeding the 2 of us and popped a teatowel under the lid for the last hour to help the sauce thicken up and that worked really well. I also only used 1 chopped medium chilli to suit our personal tastes.

This was really nice. Very easy to cook and very tasty. Family loved this dish. I did add turmeric (real not powder) for health reasons.
Just made a big batch of this! Great for freezing. Very child friendly dish (without the chilli) and taste great!
I made this last night and left the chilli out because of the kids. I think leaving them out made it really bland but after adding 1 teaspoon keens curry powder and some sugar for sweetness it was delicious and I’ll make it again this way
Made this last night amazing flavours. I used chopped chicken fillets for ease everything else as recipe. Will definitely make again
I have cooked this delicious recipe twice now and it is a huge hit. The flavours are perfect. I will just keep doing it, I love using fresh garlic, ginger ect rather than powder. The grand children are asking for this recipe now and it is so easy to prepare. Thank you Paulene.
Hello!
Just wondering with these herbs & spices
garlic, paprika, ginger, coriander, parsley
Are they fresh, granules, dried or powder?
Wasn’t sure, so just used what was on hand and if had more than one type took a guess. Not sure I guessed right tho, so clarification would be helpful ☺️
Thanks a lot!!
Hi,
The garlic, ginger and parsley were fresh and the others were powdered
Thanks so much Tanya!
I will try again next week 🙂
2 Tblsp fresh crushed garlic is like a whole bulb — YUM!!
It’s on!
Can’t wait to taste it 😜
