Well, it tastes just as good if not better. Your recipe is amazing! The only mod I did was to add a few bay leaves in step 6 while simmering, and garnish with fresh coriander leaves. I couldn't ask for a better first try at anything Indian! Many blessings to you for sharing, Meena.

Had to substitute habaneros for jalapenos, which really put some heat into it. Overall it was good, but I was making two other dishes simultaneously so I think I could've done better. Tasted great though! I made this last night. Had to substitute habaneros for jalapenos, which really put some heat into it.

It was delicious. The green chilies I used were extra spicy, so I added a spoonful of plain yogurt to it (for my husband) and it ended up having a ceamy texture, which we discovered that we liked. Thanks again! Really nice job with your site. Hi Meena,
