This is terrific! I wasn't quite to sure what to expect from a sweet/sour/curried carrot salad but it blew my socks off. This has a an amazing flavor that is so very worth the cooking. I made this early in the day and chilled it till dinner and what a treat. This will certainly be making repeat performances around here :D.
