    Banging!!!! I haven’t come across a recipe I haven’t enjoyed by Jon. I made this for dinner today and the school cake!!! Will definitely be making this again.

      Beautiful meal and easy to cook As a spice gage, I can tolerate a up to medium tikka/bhuna curry and this was my max spice level to enjoy it without it being too hot.

    This dish is quick, easy and very tasty. Much better and much more tasty than a takeaway. To be honest I’ve never made any of Jon’s recipes that aren’t delicious!!

    So authentic, better than takeaway food and a fraction of the cost, we loved this slightly less sriracha next time for hubby but an overall easy, fabulous dish. Thankyou.
