Expert Tips

Fresh unpeeled gingerroot, tightly wrapped, can be frozen up to 6 months. To use, slice off a piece of frozen ginger and return the rest to the freezer.

Curry powder is a blend of several spices, such as turmeric, coriander, cumin and fenugreek. To ensure maximum freshness and flavor, keep ground spices for only 1 year.

    I loved this dish, I will be making it again and again! I doubled the zuchini because that is how much I had, and I love zuchini. I also did heaping tablespoons of curry (2), fresh grated ginger (1) and cumin (1)...yes Tbsp of cumin even though recipe calls for teaspoon. I LOVE Indian spices. I also make a mix of brown and wild rice as I don't like white rice. This is a favourite dish now!

    I changed this recipe a little but it was still really great. It was very spicy. I love curry and this I thought was more hot than regular red curry. I didn't have ginger root so just used ginger powder. I also put yellow squash in it as well as zucchini. I didn't put any Cumin spice because I didn't have any. I used small amount of sour cream instead of yogurt. As the other review mentioned I used cube steak instead of ground beef. Overall it was great.

    It was excellent. A little too spicy for my taste, but my guy loved it. Less Cumin next time for me, and we used much more yogurt than called for. We also used a chopped steak instead of ground beef. Very good.
