What a lovely surprise this was! I admit, it was the first time I've used that much yogurt in any dish that wasn't raita, which is strange since my local Indian lunch counter offers the most delicious yogurt curry that I never fail to order. I think I need to expand my culinary horizons. But I digress! This had a great balance of flavors that went well with basmati, an additional dal, a chole curry and papads. The curry leaves took it over the top for me. Thank you for this keeper, Udita, and all your help in zmail! Made for Fall 2008 PAC.
