Curry was quite runny and didn’t have any depth of flavour. Not sure how to improve this.

Ah well add less water next time and an extra tsp of cumin powder in the cook or simmer for longer until it becomes thick

Followed recipe to the letter. Curry was quite runny and had very little flavour, how can I improve this?

absolutely yes but on the defrost you will see the water separates out alot so simmer it until it becomes a good consistency again and plenty fresh coriander when you re serve

I made this with quoin pieces, as I am vegetarian, also a slightly forgetful one. Had to use chickpeas as a substitution for red lentils, thoughts I had some left...anyway beautiful flavours, a bit like a sunny day.

I am wondering how to make maslal/garam masala spice bend from scratch. I have plenty of raw ingredients and thought I could get a good blend together, but something seems to be missing. I have corriander seeds, cumin seeds, fenugreek, mace, nutmeg, cardamon seeds and cassia bark. I know the coriander, cumin and fenugreek is for the base...

OK so the bengali rolls royce GM is just green cardamom cinnamon cloves in equal measure. potent stuff- throw in some coriander seeds and cumin seeds aall equal and that should be good stuff but then go easy in the recipes as it is strong

I made this on Monday night and although I think it was tasty, there was a bit too much water for my liking. I felt it took the shine off it. But fear not, I will 100% be trying this again but less water.
