Fabulous! I should have made this earlier, but I was turkeyed out.....had to stop for some beef and pork! Made this tonight and the smell while cooking is amazing, and it tastes wonderful. I did let it cook a bit longer to let the curry flavor develop a bit, but it was fine at the time specified in the recipe. Made for your win in Football tag. Thanks for sharing a wonderful recipe that will be repeated.
