The taste is very good but could please tell me what I did wrong as the "red part" let's call it sauce didn't turn out? I have even tried to put slightly more water but didn't work. I am sure if someone can help me to understand this recipe will be so so so good :)

Response: Hi Silvia, did you grind the masala powder fine or coarse in step-1? It needs to be ground fine to make the curry sauce.

Super recipe! I had just read the recipe. In the end... I felt that a touch a sugar was needed,..... and there it was in the recipe. Nice!

Great recipe. If I need to make this for 4 Adults in a single serving, by what proportion do I increase all the ingredients? Thanks.

Response: Hello Jim, multiply all the ingredients by 1.5 to make this curry for 4 adults.

Thanks for a great recipe..... Is the quantity sufficient for Four adults in a single serving or do I need to double the quantity? Sorry I got confused with the term “3 Servings”. Thanks

Response: Hello Jamie, this curry serves 3 adults in single serving.

I tried this so many times. It's a crowd favorite.
I skip the lemon juice though. I tried with less peanuts than said here (only because it felt little sticky with more peanuts) and is still tasty.
Thank you for this recipe.

Is it necessary to use dry coconut or fresh coconut?

Response: In this recipe, dry coconut is used. If it is not available, you can use same amount of fresh coconut or skip it and add 1-tablespoon extra peanuts instead of it.

Jul 09, 2015 by Sumi

Very tasty curry, no need to go to hotel.

May 04, 2015 by Veda

Easy recipe, made this today. My husband liked it but gravy was not red as shown. Why are sugar and lemon added?

Response: Hi Veda,hanks for trying the recipe. The red color of gravy depends on the red chili powder. To get the dark red color, use kashmiri red chili powder. Lemon juice is added to get mild tangy taste and sugar is added to balance the tanginess. They both are optional ingredients so, you can skip them.

Apr 30, 2015 by Hani

May 29, 2014 by Mrs Pinky J Gandhi

Nice recipe, as per your measurement I had gone through but only thing it's color did not come out as red you have show in the images. Yes I am sure I can make this recipe as a side when you are expecting guest at home.

Response: Hi Pinky, thanks for trying the recipe. The red color depends on the quality of red chilli powder (use kashmiri red chilli powder (not very old) to get less spicy taste and dark red color).

May 23, 2014 by Pooja

This recipe is awesome!! I like the way you prepared the Masala and step by step information will help a lot. Thanks for a very new recipe.

Mar 14, 2014 by Geetha

Easy and quick recipe, thanks. I tried with tamarind juice, certainly tastes better.

Feb 08, 2014 by Harshini

Thanks for sharing the recipe of this dish. It came out very well. Along with this we added a little of cashew nut paste too.

Nov 24, 2013 by Ruhi

Yummy and easy recipe..my family loves it.Thanks and keep going.
My recipe turned out to be little sweet instead of hot and spicy any idea why? It still tasted good though...

Response: Thanks Ruhi for the feedback. One reason could be the amount of lemon juice used by you. When you prepare it next time, do not add sugar and increase the amount of red chilli powder to 1 teaspoon to make it more spicy.

Oct 31, 2013 by Gayathri

I'm loving this site!!! Tried dum aloo, kadai paneer, and capsicum masala.. every single one of them came out really well.. i love the fact that you suggest ground masala than a generic garam masala as in other sites.. This way the curries are all having an original and unique flavour!!!

Sep 11, 2013 by Viji

Excellent recipe. Just tried out and it came well.I wish i can add some tamarind to it instead of the lime juice.

Response: You can use same amount of tamarind juice (1/2 teaspoon) instead of lemon juice (1/2 teaspoon) in the given recipe method.
