This was nice and tender but did not fall apart tender where you can't slice it without it falling apart. You could taste the coriander just slightly. The gravy was full of flavor. One thing I'd do different would be to add more garlic/seasoning in the beginning that was very good. I made this for *Zaar World Tour 4* 2008 round 3 the *Canadian Region* I'm playing on the team *Tastebud Tickling Travelers* Go team go!
