this dish was exellent i served it with saffron rice next time i will try it with

jasmine rice i liked the idea of using individual spices as opposed to using a

pre-made curry powder so as to adjust the amount of spice to my own taste yum!!!

I used GARAM MASALA instead of all the first spices starting with "c". It has them all in it. I also used whipping cream instead of milk. Everyone raved over this dish! It was easy. I served over Basmati rice with a salad. What a dinner for 12!

I have ordered this dish a couple of times at restaurants and enjoyed it - I never thought it would be so quick to make at home. A great combination of flavors. I cut the chicken into smaller pieces (about 2 inches squared).
