Questions, Comments & Reviews
I thought it was commical that you consider your recipe "Firy Hot,"
because when I make chicken curry I use 1/2 tablespoon Madras Curry, since my wife doesn't like it too hot , than I put a teaspoon or more of a sambal ( Indonesian hot pepper paste) on my plate.
Happy New Year!
