Great recipe! I made this exactly as written except that I cut the cayenne pepper in half. Still spicy enough for my boys. This was a quick and easy dinner. Thanks for sharing.

DELICIOUS!! This was really excellent and I will definitely make it again. The only thing I did differently from the recipe was, on a whim, I threw in the remainder of a package of ground almonds (couple of tablespoons) that I found in my cupboard. This thickened the sauce a little and enhanced the "Indian-ness" of the overall dish.

A bit spicy but very flavorful. I used chicken instead of beef. I also used Rajah garam masala and instead of ghee ( I should of bought it) I used unsalted butter in a fix. Overall a great dish with either rice or naan
