I liked this, My advice: use rice or udon noodles instead of spaghetti noodles, use coconut milk instead of coconut extract and evaporated milk (that will also make it vegan btw). I didn't have zucchini so I subbed some other veggies (like green pepper and mushrooms), and I also ended up cooking it for a little longer. I also did water and vegan chicken bouillon for the noodles. I did ginger powder because I had it, but I think fresh ginger would be great...maybe cut the amount of spices (I did 3/4). Read More

instead of using spaghetti definately use your choice of thick asian noodles and an asian-inspired kick! Read More

This recipe was amazing and I don't say that lightly. However I used only 2 tsp. each coriander and cumin and 2 tsp. turmeric and ginger. I also cut the curry powder down a little though not by much. The only other change I made was using 6 oz. coconut milk instead of evaporated milk and coconut extract. My family loved this and I'll definitely be making it again. Tastes even better served with a pot of coconut rice! Read More

Use less turmeric. One teaspoon max. Could be a really tasty dish but became overrun by the turmeric. Read More
