Thanks for another great recipe Kevin! We had this for dinner tonight. I used boned, skinless chicken thighs (personal preference) and I found with rice, and Mini's Kachoomar Must Must Salad, the 800g of fillets I bought were more than enough for 4 hearty serves. I cooked the dish for 30 minutes, took it out, and found the chicken in the centre still quite underdone. I would recommend stirring the dish (as I did) and cooking it for about 10 more minutes (40 in total). Still, an easy, extremely tasty dish that even our non-curry eater tried and gave the thumbs-up!

Made this last weekend and enjoyed it very much. I made chickpea korma instead of chicken, and used half n' half instead of yogurt (just because I didn't want to buy a whole tub of yogurt for one dish). Turned out wonderfully. I'm planning to make it again this weekend as a mixed vegetable korma.

This recipe is easy to prepare and has is a great tasty dish. Like JanS I used skinless chicken thighs. I think that chicken thighs don't dry out as much as breast and thighs impart more flavour. I certainly will be using the recipe again. Thank you.
