Its funny. In our house the way food tastes is slightly different depending on who is making the meal. This recipe is a perfect example. Ken loves curry and always uses more than I would. I know he would use a spicier curry if not for me as well. I love a mild curry flavor myself. I leave the type of curry and the amounts up to you. The key here will be to taste the sauce before you serve it!

This recipe was delicious !! I added garlic to it as we are garlic lovers and used some spicy ketchup for a bit of a kick. I used coconut milk instead of water with my rice in the rice cooker..my hubby loved this and always complains when I cook because he cooks better than i do. Will make this many more times to come.
