"This was really lovely, and it was one of those rare dishes that the entire family enjoyed, from 9 month old to 3#$(* year old ;). Served with rice and sauteed zucchini it made for a very satisfying meal. I used only 1 T of tamarind b/c I was unsure how we would feel about the flavor, and I think it was a good choice for us. Thanks for posting, CJAY! Made for ZWT 7, for the Vivacious Violets."

"A quick and easy meal that was very tasty. We had already prepared veggies when we had found this recipe so we omitted the capsicum. It was delicious and would be really suited to serving with rice."
