I am a vegetarian and I also don't do much dairy so I am always looking for recipes full of fresh colorful foods. For this one I used silken tofu instead of yogurt added a little lime and used dry beans (soaked and cooked). I left out the chopped tomatoes. I also thought that there was a little something missing so I added a bit of cayenne and salt and here was the trick: brown sugar. I am not sure how much I added (around 2 tbsp) so I would just play with it until it tasted good. Another thought instead of the brown sugar might be golden raisins. Once I added the brown sugar it was DELICIOUS. Read More
Used fresh tomatoes and some red kidney beans and white navy beans. I kept adding spices as I was cooking this and still find the end result a bit bland. I added more cumin garam masala and also some curry powder. If I make this again I might add a jalapeno pepper too. Read More

This is a good recipe. I left out the beans as I thought the lentils were enough. I do agree with the other posters that it's a bit bland. That can be fixed by either adding more onions or more spices. The next time I'll double the onions and add some cumin seed to them while frying. Also many years ago an Indian friend told me that the secret to Indian food is frying the onions until they are a deep golden brown and THEN adding the garlic and ginger. Read More
This recipe was good but could have been a little spicier. It seemed to lose some of its flavor when I added all the lentils. I used frozen spinach brown lentils chickpeas and cherry tomatoes cut in half which added a nice flavor. Despite the lack of meat my husband did not complain and complimented me on the dish. Next time I think I will put in more of the spices and roast them in the pan with the onion and oil. That seems to bring out the flavor in Indian food. Read More

Great curry in a hurry! Had to add some extra hotness to suit our tastes and it made much more than 4 servings. Will add to my recipe box; Thank you. Just a tip for you curry lovers...my Indian friend taught me to toast my whole cumin in a hot pan then grind it in a coffee grinder and save for yummy currys - try it and you will see the difference.

Oh my god how good is this?! It came together in a jiffy hardly had any time to taste it and adjust it along the way then suddenly it was bang there so perfect. Even with the changes I had to make (frozen spinach curry instead of garam masala no cilantro) it is fabulous. Eating it over rice and with naan bread for lunch the next few days. But I'm going to have to make this again as a dinner for my vegetarian friends. So exciting! Read More
I used chickpeas instead of mixed beans since that's all I had on hand. I thought that this recipe was good but missing something. Taking the advice of another reviewer I added some more spice and a spoonful of brown sugar to the leftovers and that was the key. I think I will make this again and maybe add some dried cranberries to the mix. Read More
This was a really good and healthy recipe. I didnt add the oil but it came out fine. I also added some corn into the mix that gave a nice sweetness in the background. Read More
This is a wonderful recipe. I used swiss chard instead of spinach and changed the spices just a bit to compensate for what I had on hand - I didn't have turmeric so I used a mild curry powder that contained turmeric and I only had regular chili powder so I added a pinch of cayenne to it. I used pinto beans (2 cups that I had previously cooked from dry beans). I also lightly salted each addition as I added it to the pan. This curry looks so beautiful smells great and tastes just fabulous! It's a keeper for sure. Read More
