I like the curry and turmeric flavours in this dish, but not the vinegar as much. I'm thinking the first simmering could be shorter and once potatoes and carrots are added, it could simmer longer...these veggies were only just done at 30 min and didn't carry the curry flavour of the dish. A crockpot may indeed be a way to enhance and round out the quality of this curry for me. Thanks for posting.

This recipie was very tasty, though we found it needed a little something more so we added a dash of cummin and a dash of hot pepper sauce. We also found it took about double the time to cook. Next time we will use a crockpot.
