2017 a made this last night and was disappointed. It was boring and lacked colour contrast and I would not bother doing it again. Of course, everyone’s curry powder can make a big difference to the outcome but even so, this is a poor knock off of an old Jamie Oliver recipe… Just say in’, don’t bother!
Glad I came across your site – my boyfriend bought recently 2 kilos of feijoa and had no idea what to do with them. In Azerbaijan people usually use them in kompot, a sweet drink, but this one i can just buy in the shop. I’ll be making chicken curry this week :-)
