I don't know what happened, but this just tasted like pot roast to me. Very confusing - the toasted spices smelled SO AMAZING and obviously there are lots of complex flavors involved. Maybe I overcooked it? In the end I just kept dumping garam masala and fresh cilantro and even minced jalapenos in the mix, hoping to perk it up a bit. Alas.

This is fabulous! I made 1/3 the recipe and am saving the rest of the toasted spices in an air-tight container for another time. I used lamb and fat-free yogurt, and sprinkled chopped cilantro on the finished dish. Luscious.

I love this recipe! It takes time ,but it's worth it. My dinner guests love this. It freezes well too. I served it with rice, naan bread and salad with ginger dressing ,good combo.

Absolutely wonderful curry. Made 2x the recipe for a dinner party, it was gone in 15 min. I was turn off by the amount of work involve, but it wasn't as hard or as long as I expected, although I did use a ready curry powder. Will definitely make it again, and will make a few batches of the toasted spices for later use.
