Followed the recipe to the letter and really loved it. - 26 Dec 2015
Lovely recipe the whole family loved it - 05 Jan 2013
I've been using this recipe since Xmas 2011 and it is always very tasty whatever leftover veg I use. Usually do half the quantity but without the tinned tomatoes as we are not keen and sometimes I make it into a curry when I don't use cayenne, but do add 1/4 teaspoons of paprika, garam masala, chilli powder and medium strength curry powder and have rice with it. Great recipe, thanks so much. - 27 Dec 2014
