The Great Curry Experiment

So, tonight I ventured into the world of Indian food. Based on reviews from both the lovely Christy, and gorgeous Mandy I tried this Red Lentil Curry.


I've never made lentils before, nor have I ever really eaten them before. Are they supposed to be mushy? Cause mine were totally mushy! But, they were still pretty tasty. As a result of said mushy lentils, my curry was pretty watery. I decided to beef it up a bit with a can of chickpeas and 2 chicken breasts. I also modified the recipe by using a can of diced tomatoes instead of tomato paste. End result, pretty damn tasty! Next time though, I think I'll use a spicier curry paste. This didn't quite have enough heat for me, but the flavour was still amazing!
Best part: Full of healthy stuff!

Sounds yummy. I am a sucker for the green type of curry. I am a wuss when it comes to heat but B is all about the spicey!
