hi emin-j, I thought this was simply the best curry I've ever made at home now. Really that good. It had real depth, sweetness and was subtle but at the same time you could taste those spices but they all merged together brilliantly.
10 out of 10... This is the one for me from now on.
I did make a few tweaks (welll I'm only human) to make the cooking process simpler and keep to one pot and used a stick blender..I doubled the scale but i cut back on doubling the garamasala but other than that, this is you genius creation.
