I follow no recipies I take hints and ideas techniques from here and there and make my own creation.i use this as a reference and add other stuff or omit as to my preference...I now also drown my curry in coconut milk...it's works for me

[@godscience7821]

Trini to the bone

[@vuzzler1]

Equal parts of geera and curry? No coconut milk? No masala? Didn’t toast the curry? This is why I don’t go to restaurants

[@013DaBoss]
