Delicious. Hubby is a "Where's the meat?" kind of guy, so added some cubed lamb (marinated in curry paste for a few hours) which worked really well. Was going to use madras paste, but stuck with a mild korma and glad I did as mixed with the chilli flakes it had just the right amount of heat.

This recipe is gorgeous! Finally made this evening and used Patak's balti curry paste and chilli powder instead of flakes. I also added some mushrooms and an aubergine, which I fried a little whilst the sweet potato was boiling, and added some pasatta so it was more saucy. So healthy and quick!

Delicious, and healthy! I made my own curry paste for some extra spice. Very filling, and the yoghurt definitely makes it. I think it could be very adaptable, I'm looking forward to trying to again and experimenting with the ingredients

Good, healthy vegetarian food - just added mushrooms, used homemade curry paste, and lots more spice (Indian naga hot sauce!), but only because I'm a spice junky!

Delicious and healthy, the coriander and yoghurt make it really fresh tasting. I halved the quantities to make for 2 people. I added one large chicken breast and held back on the chick peas. Yummy!
